"locale C" in reinplace (Was: [96139] trunk/dports/x11/lesstif/Portfile)

[Craig Treleaven]

Hi:

I've noticed a number of commits recently inserting "-locale C" into 
reinplace commands (example below).  Google didn't point to an 
explanation so I wonder if someone could give me a brief description?

Thanks,

Craig
