Yes, something changed in localization support in 3.15.2, but it was 
(normally) just bug fixes.

Can you send us the list of all environment variables of your two 
systems used when running your tests? (Xubuntu 16.04 LTS and Xubuntu 
18.04). I need the localization variables (all LC_*, LANG and LANGUAGES).

Thanks.
