What I mean is that there are whole alg. geometry books written in the language of toposes (Illusie's Complexe cotangent, for example, is like that — Let R be a ring in a topos and M be an R-module, etc.) where LEM would not necessarily hold, and, as far as I remember, the results of topos-theoretic commutative algebra that are supposed to remain valid are assumed without notice.
