Issue created Jul 18, 2013 by import-from-Redmine@import-from-Redmine

Fix locales format based on wrong assumption

Originally created by Tails on #6001 (Redmine)

A few places in Tails (git grep LANG) assume everything that can be in $LANG starts with the xx_XX form, which is, unfortunately, not true: e.g. fil_PH.

Instead of relying home-made shell trickery and re-inventing the wheel we should consider using some existing library or tool for this, or we should read the standards so we can prevent buggy edge cases.
