 Since LANG is an environ(7) variable, you should probaly avaoid that. Did you try
 
   env LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-15 make
 
 which is a border case, but may happen if the installing user is not root. Generally
 I'm not sure if this causes real problem, but it look like it is better to avoid
 them. Also you might want to look for a more standard way to specify your mirrors.
