Actually, this particular system uses the en_US locale.  I don't know
why that is.  Clearly, that is part of the problem.  Next time I'll
check the locale, instead of just assuming it.

The word in question is spelled "center" in American English, and
"centre" in British English.  Canada's spelling is somewhere in
between, if that is posible.  I don't know if there is an official
spelling in Canada, or in anyplace for that matter.  I certainly don't
want to impose my personal views on other people.
