LANGUAGE handling

I've just applied a patch which changes the handling of the LANGUAGE
environment variable.  It's value is now ignored if the locale used in
the gettext call is "C".  This will avoid the problems some people saw
with charset conversion and transliteration happening if the program
is not ready (means, did not call setlocale).

This was the last patch on my list.  I'll make today or tomorrow a
first test release for 2.2.1.  If you have anything left which should
be in 2.2.1 let me know soon.
