Strange. I'm using Debian unstable here and it works fine, i.e., just
as you expect. This sounds like a glibc bug to me; one corrected after
3.1. (Is that Sarge? I don't know the version numbers.)

What version of the libc6 package do you have installed? I have 2.3.6-18
here.

$ LC_MESSAGES=C dpkg -l libc6
