sid upgrade perl problem

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel@shellworld.net>]

When I finished the upgrade, the locale environment variables were not set 
and later could not be set.  When I open man pages I get warnings about 
lc_all and language variables.  That stuff was selected back when I 
installed lenny though.  Can I do something to straighten things out?  I 
had used utf8 and that was probably a mistake.
