I don't have any UTF-8 locales. They are all misspelled with utf8.
!? I know that's a common misspelling, but I didn't change them (this
was why I was trying '.uft8', in LANG, even though some parts claim it is
wrong...

That must be a red hering. I just checked on a working 11.0
installation and there locale also gave the same output.

If you had done the strace I mentioned you would have seen that the
locale info is in /usr/lib/locale.

I just haven't gotten to it yet...it's painful.
Sides, isn't the locale stuff all in libraries -- not in system
calls?

Wouldn't I want ltrace?

It's just so messy, either way and the largest chunk of evil
messages get spit out on login -- so it's not just a '[ls]trace', but
also breaking down in which login script, -> which command. All very
messy!

Any people wonder why linux isn't desktop ready...I can see
me trying to walk my near 80'y/o mom through an strace.
