I just checked in my system SuSE 9.2, installed as 'en_US' in the Netherlands.

LANG=en_US.UTF-8 and should be for you LANG=es_VE.UTF-8

In Yast goto System>/etc/sysconfig Editor:
Go in tree on the left to System>Environment>Language, for my system:

entry		value
----------------------------
RC_LANG		en_US.UTF-8
RC_LC_ALL	{blank}
MESSAGES	{blank}
CTYPE		{blank}
ROOT_USES_LANG	ctype

In the environment I do not have all of the LC_* set
Only the LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Be carefull with SuSE for the language and country settings.

In Yast there is a icon telling you 'Choose Language' to.
This sets the 'country' and as result the most common language spoken there.
I'm also afraid SuSE's country_language setting is not the same as 
the intension of the standard definition for these.

I found in the past 'en_GB' and 'en_UK' with SuSE and KDE for
English in Great Brittan, also known as United Kingdom, but
as far I found 'en_UK' is 'English in Ukraine', bit strange.
Some of the KDE Translators are using en_UK for United Kingdom,
others using 'en_GB' and SuSE is using en_GB for GreatBrittan.

The Clock and Time settings you choose also a country.
I'm afraid this one is also changing the country part of the language.
The order of setting the Clock/Time and Language can be importand.

The good one should be visible in the environment with evv > myenv.txt
These are used with gambas.
