The incorrect escaping seems to only happen if /etc/environment includes quote character ("). If one uses syntax like
LC_CTYPE=fi_FI.UTF8
in the file /etc/environment then the problem is not visible.

Consider the above as a workaround. The real problem is incorrect parsing of file /etc/environment by yet unknown scripts.
