Description Denys Vlasenko 2011-06-07 14:38:04 UTC 
The problem is here:

if [ -z "${NOLOCALE:-}" ] && [ -z "${LANGSH_SOURCED:-}" ] && [ -f /etc/sysconfig/i18n ] ; then
  . /etc/profile.d/lang.sh 2>/dev/null
  # avoid propagating LANGSH_SOURCED any further
  unset LANGSH_SOURCED
fi

We source /etc/profile.d/lang.sh without checking that it exists. If it doesn't, then not just this one line doesn't execute, ENTIRE script is aborted.
Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2011-06-07 16:18:10 UTC 
I can't reproduce this:

[root@nostromo ~]# cd /etc/profile.d/
[root@nostromo profile.d]# mv lang.sh  lang.cow
[root@nostromo profile.d]# SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_REDIRECT=1 /etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd status
openssh-daemon (pid  990) is running...

Are you running with any non-default settings? (set -e, for example?)

Furthermore, it's in the same package, so it's not a condition that would normally happen.
Comment 2 Václav Pavlín 2012-07-20 10:25:37 UTC 
Not reproducible and, as said in Comment 1, lang.sh is part of the package and it is not missing normally.
