understand setting LANG may cause already set LC_ variables to keep their
value. What happens if you set LC_ALL instead of LANG:
LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 ./run unit/_filedir.exp
What version of `expect' (expect -v) and `tcl' (tclsh, info patchlevel) are you using, just in case?
Another useful page: http://www.in-ulm.de/~mascheck/locale/
What happens if you patch test/config/bashrc like this, just so we can at least
get it to work once on your machine:

Attached is the part of my dbg.log from the previous PASS to the two FAILs for _filedir.exp. This is with bash-3.2.39 and UTF-8 locale settings.

Hmm, and on another Ubuntu-10.04 this test is giving me a segmentation fault right after the aé test seemed to have passed... Can you run the test with --debug and send the part of dbg.log where the test fails?

Unfortunately that change does not appear to make any difference here; it behaves just like before it (fails with en_US.UTF-8 with both bash 3.2.25 and 3.2.39, works with 4.1.7).

I'm having troubles with `expect': changing the locale within an `expect'
session causes bash to exit, although I had it working before. The problem
occurs only on an old Debian system though, not on a newer Ubuntu system...
Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Create a file unicode.exp containing:
spawn bash
send "LC_CTYPE=C\r"
send "aaébb"; # unicode é = \u00e9
expect -ex "cc"; # 'expect' detects eof when reading \u00e9?
send "dd"; # 'expect' error: spawn id not open
2. Run: LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 expect -f unicode.exp
3. I get this error output:
$ expect -f unicode.exp
spawn bash
LC_CTYPE=C
aaébb$ LC_CTYPE=C
$ aasend: spawn id exp6 not open
while executing
"send "dd""
(file "unicode.exp" line 6)
4. What I expected is the same output as with LC_CTYPE=C expect -f unicode.exp:
$ LC_CTYPE=C expect -f unicode.exp
spawn bash
LC_CTYPE=C
aaébb$ LC_CTYPE=C
$ aaC)bb$
See also: http://fvue.nl/wiki/Expect:_Changing_locale_causes_spawned_process_to_exit
So it looks like changing LC_CTYPE within `expect' wasn't such a good idea.
For now I'll put the _filedir test ("completing f aé should return g") behind
the condition that LC_CTYPE should match *UTF-8*, otherwise the following run
definitely fails:
$ LC_CTYPE=C ./run unit/_filedir.exp
See commit 37f51b9.

Don't know what's going on. I get your errors when running from cron. But when running manual with locale set to "en_US.UTF-8", tcl/expect/dejagnu chokes on the unicode char, from dbg.log:
send: sending "f a\u00e9/\t" to { exp9 }
expect: does "" (spawn_id exp9) match exact string "f a\u00e9/"? no

expect: read eof
expect: set expect_out(spawn_id) "exp9"

write() failed to write anything - will sleep(1) and retry...

It also fails the same way for me with bash 3.2.25 and 3.2.39, no matter what LANG is set to.
