Here is a quite minimal diff to do so, at least for the buildkernel
part.

In any case, it looks like awk is used quite a lot in other places
during buildworld; some of these invocations already use LC_ALL=C, most
of them do not.  There are even invocations of sh using LC_ALL=C. :)

Instead of peppering the whole tree with LC_ALL=C insertions, would it
make sense to simply set LC_ALL=C globally during building world and
kernel?  Or are there parts that actually use locales during the build?
