According to Andreas Schwab on 5/1/2009 10:14 AM:
> What's the point in using a French locale in check-AUTHORS?
If I understand the issue correctly: Some of the authors' names have
non-ASCII characters. Using the C locale is not guaranteed to preserve
those, so we must specify some locale more likely to work. A previous
version used an English locale, but for some reason, translations in the
English locale are not as well-maintained, and gnulib already provides the
free checks for a French locale.
