If some piece of software can't cope with "ISO8859-1" as an encoding, we
should just change the locale strings in the lang.src files to use
"ISO-8859-1" or whatever is wanted. I didn't think glibc cared, or I
would have done this earlier.
As to the "@euro" bit, yes, the parser needs to understand about that.
Given a locale string in german.src of "de_DE.ISO-8859-15@euro", you
ideally want to be writing "de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15" into /etc/locale.gen
and setting LANG to "de_DE@euro".
