You shouldn't set `LC_ALL' explicitly, otherwise it becomes difficult to
override the other categories (like LC_NUMERIC) individually (LC_ALL always
takes precedence). If you want to set a locale, just export `LANG=es_ES.UTF-8'
in ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession. (The NetBSD console doesn't support UTF-8 I/O,
nor fonts, so setting a UTF-8 locale is not very useful.)
