I ran into this too.   Same problem -- extra set of quotes in the  
environment variables after doing "sudo -i" .

I put



LANG=C
LANGUAGE=C
export LANG
export LANGUAGE


at the end of /root/.bashrc and the problem went away.  But now that  
two of us have seen it, I think there's a bug in "sudo -i".
