Can we at least get a documentation fix on this 5 year old bug? The ssh_config and sshd_config man pages, as well as the comments in those configuration files specifically call out that the LANG and LC_* environment variables are configured to be passed from client to server, and they are so configured. However, on a default install this will not actually happen. The documentation should be changed to reflect the fact that while the environmental variables will be passed, PAM will override the user preferences with the system defaults.
