The first step is to replace LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 with LC_ALL=C.UTF-8

But there are probably many more packages where the setting is hidden in
upstream build scripts.
Build- and various other scripts.
Is C.UTF-8 glibc upstream now, or is it still Fedora-specific?
It was never Fedora-specific. The original justification in 2013 or so
was "other distros already do it". It's just glibc upstream that doesn't
have it.
We still carry
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/glibc/blob/master/f/glibc-c-utf8-locale.patch,
so it seems this hasn't been upstream.
Ugh, this is a rather cumbersome situation for other projects:
supporting and using C.UTF-8 isn't going to happen large scale until
it's upstreamed. And it does make one wonder what exactly is
preventing it from being upstreamed in glibc.
The current C.UTF-8 locale doesn’t sort correctly. It should sort
according to code point order, but it does that only partly. It is sort
of a quick hack. The glibc developers are working on a better solution
but this takes more time.
Hmm. Not sorting correctly doesn't sound so good when LANG=C (and now
C.UTF-8) is quite commonly used exactly for that purpose.
