sed-4.2.1 configure test for UTF-8 fails, UTF-8 tests pass

sed-4.2.1's configure.ac checks if UTF-8 testsuite bits should pass or not by
first doing a case-folding test with LC_CTYPE set to ru_RU.UTF-8.  Then if
that isn't available it checks if the current locale ends in .UTF-8 (or
similar), and if not, X-FAILs the tests.  However between these two checks it
sets LC_CTYPE to "C", meaning the second test always fails, and the UTF tests
are always marked X-FAIL if ru_RU.UTF-8 isn't available.  On a system using
another UTF-8 locale (eg. en_US.UTF-8) the tests will XPASS, causing a
testsuite failure.
