I can't see an obvious way to run the regression tests via meson with
the --no-locale setting. This is particularly important on Windows. The
buildfarm client first runs the regression tests with this setting and
then tests (via installcheck) against instances set up with its
configured locales. We do it this way so we are not subject to the
vagaries of whatever environment we are running in.

cheers

Found a way to do this using --test-args
