From 163c36bdcde6aa324060bafe5674ea83cf556fd8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan McGee Date: Sun, 10 Mar 2013 23:01:55 -0500 Subject: Save and restore old locale when manipulating via setlocale We shouldn't assume a frontend program didn't explicitly set the LC_TIME setting to a value not in the environment, which is what we previously assumed. Save the old locale before forcing the 'C' locale and restore it when we are done.
