The misbehaving emacs spell check language setting

Package: emacs Version: 21.4a+1-2 Severity: important
I boot grml with 'lang=us', and I get the following as my locale:
LANG=en_US.iso885915, LC_CTYPE=en_US.iso885915 (charmap=ISO-8859-15)
Yet, when I enable flyspell-mode, I get:
Loading flyspell...done (Next local Ispell command will use german-new8 dictionary) [2 times]
I.e., the spell check language is german, instead of en_US.
Test environment: grml 0.9
-- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /UNIONFS/bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-grml Locale: LANG=en_US.iso885915, LC_CTYPE=en_US.iso885915 (charmap=ISO-8859-15)
Versions of packages emacs depends on: ii emacs21 21.4a+1-2 The GNU Emacs editor

Thanks Tong for reporting, I will take a look at it.
Please notice that the bug tracking system bugs.grml.org might not be available within the next few days, so please use our new BTS http://bts.grml.org/grml/ instead.
And as written in another mail: please don't use the grml-user mailinglist as bug report medium (it's definitely ok for me if you don't exactly know what to do, but if you found more problems or already know how to deal with a BTS there a better ways ;)), so please use http://bts.grml.org/grml/ instead.
thanks && regards, -mika-
