Bug#600310: reassigning to cron

[Michael Tokarev <mjt@tls.msk.ru>]

reassign 600310 cron
retitle 600310 cron uses regexps that return wrong results depending on locale
severity 600310 serious
thanks


Ok, as stated in two previous emails, it's problem in cron, not in
glibc/locales.  Sadly, but... ;)  And the severity isn't critical
but serious (makes cron to not process some crontabs unexpectedly).

Fortunately, another program mentioned in this bugreport, run-parts,
does not call setlocale() so is not affected.

As to the solution, I'd say we should either reset LC_COLLATE, or
retrieve default charset using some other, less intrusive, way,
or use comparisons like (c>='a' && c<='z') (or isalnum), instead
of using regexps with classes.

Thanks.
