  helper no longer leak into the shell. `showinfo` no longer needs the
  `hostname` binary.
 - `showinfo`: `fastfetch` is now preferred over the unmaintained `neofetch`.
+- `lang.sh`: `setlocale` (and the `SET_LOCALE` shortcuts) had no effect after
+  `setc`, because `LC_ALL` stayed set; `setc` and the shortcuts changed the
+  locale when called with `--help` (and thus through `help <command>`);
+  `setlocale fr_FR` could pick a non-UTF-8 charset; shortcut functions are built
+  without evaluating the raw configuration value, and an alias cannot replace
+  `setlocale` or `setc`.
 - `compress.sh`: option flags and loop variables no longer leak into the
  interactive shell.
