recordmcount.pl uses a set of regular expressions to parse the output of objdump(1). However, if objdump(1) output is localized, it may not match the regular expressions, thereby preventing recordmcount.pl from parsing object files correctly. In order to allow recordmcount.pl to function correctly regardless of the current locale settings, set LANG=C when running objdump(1). LC_ALL is already unset in the top-level Makefile, so it is not necessary to also override that environment variable.
