and where do you propose we document said override ?  in the locale guide ?  
then the only we've accomplished is making users set the samething in two 
different places

or perhaps we obscure it in a manpage (or even better, dont document it at 
all) ?  then we field bugs/forums/mailing lists with confused users who cant 
get portage output in their native language

just get Chris White to update his little bugzilla document with some steps on 
how to get english output and we close bugs as NEEDINFO telling them to 
review the document and open with the proper information
