(For those who wondered what the concrete problem we had was, it was
basically

(with-temp-buffer
  (let ((case-fold-search t))
    (insert "DIRECT\n")
    (goto-char (point-min))
    (looking-at "direct")))

If you start Emacs with

  LANG=tr_TR src/emacs

this will return nil, while in most (all?) other locales it will return
t, and this made HTTP proxying fail completely if started in that locale.)
