Hmmm... apparently not in my system:

$ LC_CTYPE=C.utf-8 locale
locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
LANG=en_US.utf8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE=C.utf-8
[...]

$ LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 locale
LANG=en_US.utf8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8

I have glibc 2.24-8 (Debian).

Ah ok, so it's a distro-specific change at the moment.

Thanks,
