In those cases when we parse output of standard utilities like readelf etc we rely on a particular sentences. For example for ARC we extract an entry-point from vmlinux like that: ---------------------->8-------------------- readelf -h vmlinux | grep "Entry point address" | grep -o 0x.* ---------------------->8-------------------- And in case LANG is set to anything other than en_XX we're getting nothing and subsequent execution of mkimage utility fails. Probably there're more cases like that but given people rarely use non-English locales on their dev machines problems like the one above are not very visible.
