I have no advice on your particular problem, but I am interested as to
why you chose LC_CTYPE to set as opposed to, say, LANG. LC_CTYPE deals
only with character classfication; typically I think you'd want to set
LANG and let LC_* inherit from that (and, if you're a very numerical
guy like me, set LC_CTYPE=C to get ASCII/UNICODE sorting order on
everything).

Note that LC_ALL is something you generally don't want to set, as took
me ages to figure out when I did that and my LC_CTYPE stopped working.
