Segmentation fault trying to repair locale issues.

If I try to set LC_{CTYPE,MESSAGES,ALL} in my .bash_profile, and then try again:

$ junest -f
/usr/bin/sh: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)
sh: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (en_US.UTF-8)

LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"

LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8

Finally, if I unset LC_ALL in my .bash_profile, the error goes away on starting junest -f, but the problems remain with tmux and locale.

This work around solve the issue for me.
