The LANG variable on RS/6000

AIX on the RS/6000 provides National Language Support (NLS) for environments outside of the United States. Compilers and assemblers use NLS to support locale-specific representations of various objects including floating-point numbers (`.' vs `,' for separating decimal fractions). There have been problems reported where the library linked with GCC does not produce the same floating-point formats that the assembler accepts. If you have this problem, set the LANG environment variable to either `C' (the C language locale) or `En_US' (the American English locale); either value should work.
