Sure.  Build and run like this:

  d=$HOME/.tmp; ./configure --prefix=$d \
    && make && make install && LC_ALL=ru_RU $d/bin/df -hT /

Here's what I see:

  Файловая система Тип  Размер Использовано  Дост Использовано% Cмонтировано в
  /dev/sdb4        ext4   2,2G         529M  1,7G           24% /

On that basis, I've marked this ticket as "closed".
