           Summary: Applications launching from XFCE (desktop menu, thunar,
                    etc) do not pass LC_TIME
           Product: Xfce
           Version: 4.4.2
          Platform: PC (x86)
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Medium
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
        ReportedBy: GenKreton at gmail.com


User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9b2)

Build Identifier: 

I need a UTF-8 environment for many reasons but prefer my time formats to be
reported in traditional POSIX format. My locale looks like

kreton at aesir ~ $ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME=POSIX
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

If I launch a program, such as pidgin, from the terminal, it displays time
properly. I KNOW my locale is proper: I've rebooted with the correct
environment settings in Gentoo and tested locale before running startxfce4.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. export locales
2. startxfce4
3. launch a program that displays time stamps

Actual Results:  
I get a 12 hour time format inside programs that read LC_TIME.

Expected Results:  
I want a 24 hour time format inside programs that read LC_TIME.
