Lc_collate

How can I set LC_COLLATE for the KDE session?

I tried putting it into .xsession, but it did not work. If I start an extra xeyes like below, /proc/$PID/environ will show LC_COLLATE being set

#!/bin/sh
xset r rate 200 40
export LC_COLLATE=C
xeyes&
exec $WINDOWMANAGER

Looking at ps af, I see

2189 ? S 0:00 \_ -:0
2214 ? Ss 0:00 \_ /bin/sh /usr/bin/kde
2428 ? S 0:00 \_ kwrapper ksmserver

Process 2214 does have LC_COLLATE set, 2428 does not.

Where do I go from here?
