Comment (by Jinhui_Chen):

 Yes, the libc.so is in English. And you are right, I have tried to change
 the locale momentarily, and it works.

 {{{
    olc <- withCString "C" $ \lc -> c_setlocale 5 lc
    r <- loadDLL "/usr/lib/libc.so"
    putStrLn (show r)
    c_setlocale 5 olc
 }}}
 5 is for LC_MESSAGES.
