Hmm... yeah, this is not ideal.

setup is just a Windows application, so I don't think the CRT implements 
checking those env vars for the default, it just looks at what the 
"Windows locale" the user has configured.

I guess it would be a good idea to take these env vars into account 
before calling setlocale() to emulate unix-style bahaviour.

Glad you managed to find the option!

Assuming that the language code is hex seems just wrong though, so I'll 
consider that a bug. Thanks for pointing that out!
