If you are talking about extending %build overload I would propose at
least using those:

export LC_ALL=C
export LANG=C
unset LINGUAS ||:
unset LANGUAGE ||:
unset LC_MESSAGES ||:

There may be apps not using message language values through glibc but
directly, in some broken way (I know because I've written one of such
apps :P).
Any thing using LC_NUMERIC and similar will probably be
written correctly enough to use LC_ALL value.

and unset DISPLAY ||: naturally
