Bug 160817

Summary:	Can not build mew port with zh_TW.Big5 as value of LC_CTYPE.

Description Thinker K.F. Li 2011-09-19 05:40:03 UTC

mail/mew port is invoking emacs for compiling .texi files to .info files.
When the port compiles the document of Japenese verion (JIS),
the emacs will ask user for an encoding name if LC_CTYPE is zh_TW.Big5.
It induces an error since stdin is being redirected.

How-To-Repeat: Following command is being fail.
	cd /usr/ports/mail/mew/; make clean; \
	  LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.Big5 make; make install

But, it is fine to execute this command:
	cd /usr/ports/mail/mew; make clean; \
	  LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.UTF-8 make; make install
