std::locale::global(std::locale(std::locale(), "C", std::locale::ctype));

This sets the C++ global locale, but I don't know if it's guaranteed to
set the C locale. It works with g++ on Linux, where std::locale().name()
returns a string of the form "LC_CTYPE=C;LC_NUMERIC=en_GB;...".

It's probably safe to assume that it won't work if you construct a locale
by mixing and matching facets rather than categories.
