Re: envvar's leaking into open()

[devzero]

i forgot to tell that it doesn`t happen with every locale.

you have to set it like this to reproduce:

vmhost:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/bash-3.2 # locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=
