regcomp: limit comparison to C locale only

The regex code does not work with multibyte codesets like UTF-8.  In fact,
it doesn't even work with single-byte codesets like ISO-8859-1.  The
comparison blows up at index 128 (the range is 0 to UCHAR_MAX (255).

As a temporary workaround, all comparisons will be done in C locale
regardless of the environment setting.  The regex library needs to be
updated to handle all codesets.
