Is that sufficient?  Don't you have to exclude English locales as
well?  If I run

  $ LANG=en_CA.utf8 date
  $ LANG=en_CA.utf8 date -R
  $ LANG=en_US.utf8 date
  $ LANG=en_US.utf8 date -R

...repeating for various en_* locales, I get the same result.  So
those locales would not expose the bug.  I think.
