[PATCH] Set locale before run-tests does anything

This discrepancy between my locale and Matt's broke several tests for
me, by the way. I think that the run-tests script should forcibly set
the locale to either "C" or "en_us.UTF-8" before it runs anything.
Since "C" is likely to be more portable, it's probably the right choice.
Here's the patch.

A simple testing framework To run the tests, do: cd tests/ ./run-tests This finds all scripts in the test directory named test-* and executes them. The scripts can be either shell scripts or Python. Each test is run in a temporary directory that is removed when the test is complete. A test-<x> succeeds if the script returns success and its output matches test-<x>.out. If the new output doesn't match, it is stored in test-<x>.err. There are some tricky points here that you should be aware of when writing tests: - hg commit and hg up -m want user interaction for commit use -t "text" for hg up -m, set HGMERGE to something noninteractive (like true or merge) - changeset hashes will change based on user and date which make things like hg history output change use commit -t "test" -u test -d "0 0" - diff will show the current time use hg diff | sed "s/\(\(---\|+++\).*\)\t.*/\1/" to strip dates - set -x and pipelines don't generate stable output turn off set -x or break pipelines into pieces
