No, it doesn't work here on MiniVend. Try adding this line at line 264 of
Vend/TextSearch.pm:

	use locale;

I put it in MV4 and will do some tests to check for it...I might look
at my LC_.... settings in the setlocale routine as well. It is unclear
how far I should go in changing locale based on user settings, and I am
reworking it all anyway. I think I might have a settable array of the
LC_MONETARY, LANG, LC_CTYPE, and LC_COLLATE that can be accessed by
the new actions.

Also on the locale front, I am adding an auto-locale setting capability
with the Accept-Language: header, and I have added a setting that
looks for (German locale as example) index.de_DE over index.html if
that is the current locale.
