OK.  Thanks everyone for the feedback, this is what I'll be committing
tomorrow if check passes (running ATM) and unless I hear complaints.

    Unconditionally normalize LC_ALL, LANGUAGE in libtool script.
    
    * libltdl/config/ltmain.m4sh: Unconditionally set LC_ALL and
    LANGUAGE to 'C', to avoid semantic differences on MinGW under
    Chines locale.  SCO issues with e.g. LANG=C are not known to
    be relevant today any more.
