--- Comment #9 from Halil ?zg?r <halil.ozgur at gmail.com> ---
OK. I'm really tired of software (or people?) not caring for the
non-Latin languages or the languages that have a Latin alphabet but
different rules. Here is a real problem that this bug (or rather, this
bad default) has contributed part of it which actually caused
production web sites not to respond, more than one time:

# From a host with "tr_TR.UTF-8" locale
ssh some_host
[root at some_host ~]# service php-fpm restart
# Website stops to respond (i.e. fatal error/white screen of death/etc)

This is because PHP also didn't really care about locales until version
5.5: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=18556

The two bugs combined can mess up things real quick if you don't know
where to look. OK, this one is actually a bad default rather than a bug
IMO. Programs shouldn't try to change settings on remote hosts that can
have side effects.

Therefore, the best fix IMO is not sending anything by default. Or
should I report this to distribution maintainers? But not having the
ability to disable this without editing some system config as root is
also a problem.

Add UnSendEnv option

This adds an UnSendEnv option that allows cancelling SendEnv. It
supports wildcards, so "UnSendEnv LC*" will cancel sending all
environment variables starting with "LC".
