There was a problem hiding this comment.
Only use C as a fallback it will always exist and log that it's falling back to C logger.error("Couldn't set the locale: unsupported locale setting; falling back to 'C' locale")
Skip falling back to en_US and go straight to C as it is always available. Add error logging.
