unity8 crashed with SIGABRT in raise() under incorrect locale

[Michał Sawicz]

Same for mtp-server in bug #1294884

unity8 aborts on startup when the selected locale isn't available. Sure, incorrect locale is bad, but falling back to C would probably be a better option:

  what(): locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid
