Thank you for explaining that. I don't set LC_ALL in my .bash_profile, though my environment does have:

Ah, that is a new feature of Leopard’s Terminal. See Preferences → Settings → Advanced.
IMO this ‘feature’ though is misimplemented, it should only set LC_CTYPE (rdar://5564288).
It does however derive the value of the variable from your system locale settings (sometimes with bad results though).
