It's because of a bug in OAF 1.x. liboaf, spawns a new oafd process when
an OAF object is initialized and oafd still stays alive, even after the
last OAF process exits.

So other OAF processes started by the old oafd will inherit the
environment of the old OAF process, including the ones which specify the
locale. That's all.

Running oaf-slay seems to be a workaround.

OK, anyone? I'm not sure if this is a known problem. :)
