Subject: Fix test_sys: set LC_ALL instead of LANG
X-Git-Tag: v3.2a2~139
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ef6ff662c933f43df5bba40032de2d718f4e1fd8;p=python

Fix test_sys: set LC_ALL instead of LANG

LC_ALL is read before LANG to choose the locale encoding (LC_ALL, LANG and then
LC_CTYPE: use the first non empty variable).
