Re: Autogen in Emacs Shell

Right, so explicitly doing

  (setenv "LANG" "en_US.UTF-8")

solves both problems at once.  Interesting...  Do you have any comments on
that?  Maybe clarifications on why this problem occurs?  For instance, why
`LANG' is properly set in ConEmu, while in Emacs it has value `ENU'?  Where
does this even come from?  Is it OK to do

  (setenv "LANG" "en_US.UTF-8")

or there is some other more generic way?
