Well, I fail to see for which specific case we should add that code. 

Most of the users will have a $LC_ALL or $LANG defined with a country and so 
KDE would override anyway the default settings.

Especially I do not understand what is so important that this should be 
changed for KDE 3.5.

(And as the bug number was not told, it is difficult to check.)
