First of all, why fix it?  Without at least a short explanation what you
observe without this patch, this change seems arbitrary.

That won't work nicely for non-Cygwin build systems.  When cross
building Cygwin on, e.g., Linux, "C.UTF-8" is an unrecognized locale.
Ideally the above would test for the current build system being Cygwin
and use "C.UTF-8" on Cygwin, "C" otherwise.


Thanks,
Corinna
