My first bad assumption was that for some reason you wanted the current locale,
whatever it is, to remain active. My second bad assumption was that you could
easily change your C-wrapper.  :)

In reading up on the locale business, setting locale to "POSIX" is suppose to
be fully portable.

So, we could easily force the locale to POSIX in the open statement.  I need to
think about whether this will mess up something else.
