/bin/sh -c "LANG=... ..."

That might work.

Currently the panel does not use the shell to execute programs. I think  
perl uses a trick where it checks the commandline for shell meta  
characters and uses /bin/sh if there are any and direct execution if  
there aren't. Perhaps we could use something like that as well.
