KDM ignoring locales

Hello.
I have problem with locales after switching from manual loggin and starting X to KDM. It simply ignores exported locales from /etc/profile
and sets all to POSIX. In other words I have in /etc/profile:

export LANG="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_CTYPE="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_NUMERIC="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_TIME="en_GB.utf8"
export LC_COLLATE="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_MONETARY="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_MESSAGES="en_GB.utf8"
export LC_PAPER="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_NAME="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_ADDRESS="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_TELEPHONE="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_MEASUREMENT="pl_PL.utf8"
export LC_IDENTIFICATION="pl_PL.utf8"
unset LC_ALL

and I end up with:

[zergu]> locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="POSIX"
LC_NUMERIC="POSIX"
LC_TIME="POSIX"
LC_COLLATE="POSIX"
LC_MONETARY="POSIX"
LC_MESSAGES="POSIX"
LC_PAPER="POSIX"
LC_NAME="POSIX"
LC_ADDRESS="POSIX"
LC_TELEPHONE="POSIX"
LC_MEASUREMENT="POSIX"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="POSIX"
LC_ALL=

I know I can add this exports in some-kde/kdm-file, but it changes every KDE update so it is not a good solution. Any ideas?
