Hm, are you setting LC_ALL yourself?
You should not set LC_ALL, it will overwrite all other settings. It is meant to bypass all locale variable if you need it in some situations, e.g. a script, without checking and unsetting the other variables yourself.

So if you have LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and LC_ALL=C, LANG as the variable with the lowest priority will be ignored and C is used.

Shade and sweet water!
