Hmm, browsing through the perl source I came across a reference to this 
(from https://perldoc.perl.org/perllocale):

---------------
PERL_SKIP_LOCALE_INIT

     This environment variable, available starting in Perl v5.20, if set 
(to any value), tells Perl to not use the rest of the environment 
variables to initialize with. Instead, Perl uses whatever the current 
locale settings are. This is particularly useful in embedded 
environments, see "Using embedded Perl with POSIX locales" in perlembed.
---------------

Seems we ought to be using that.
