There's no automated test, because it's a bit tricky to switch locales
under Windows since not all locales may be supported on a given
install. I can assure you that it has been tested and that the
behavior is correct (modulo UI language as mentioned already).

If they really have configured LC_CTYPE in a way that breaks things, I
would suggest to them to fix it instead, this way it will also fix
their Unix setup. Now, if you really know of a case where there is a
legitimate reason for someone to have an LC_CTYPE setup that breaks
Wine, then of course that would be a good argument against the patch.
