Ok, I am now convince it has nothing to do with C locales, as everything
is correct there. It is more likely a X11 locales issue.
I still don't understand why gdm defines "ru_UA.utf8" and why
libx11-data doesn't provide an alias contrary to other locales. I am
therefore reassigning this bug to both these packages.
