The printing of the locale information from sessionInfo is not very tidy.
Using toLatex(sessionInfo) pretty much guarantees "badness" from breaking
the margin boundary (though my version of TeX no longer reports such
errors).  A random example is here:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Matrix/vignettes/Design-issues.pdf

I find the locale information unnecessary and right now I hack this with
si = sessionInfo()
si$locale = "US"
toLatex(si)

I would like to be able to do something a bit cleaner, for example
sessionInfo(locale=FALSE)

For what it's worth, I don't think that early versions of sessionInfo
printed information about the locale.

Discussion welcome.
