Why exactly does this matter? UTF-8 not being a valid LC_CTYPE value simply means that no one running Linux will ever have LC_CTYPE set to UTF-8, and the branch will never be hit. 

OTOH, adding the check will make the code harder to test and simply larger (no code is always better than any non-zero amount of code).
