Clarification: whilst bitbake currently enforces en_US.UTF-8 internally to
ensure that it has a UTF-8 locale this is internal only.  The moment you
use buildtools then a number of binaries - such as git - now link to our
libc and if that doesn't understand your locale then you don't get
translations.
