Yes, indeed.  locale-zh is for glibc 2.1.x and is in fact incompatible
with glibc 2.2.

I know there is a whole bunch of problems with Chinese support in woody at
the moment with respect to the new glibc 2.2 and XFree86 4.0.1 upload.  I
wish I have more time to address them now, but probably won't have time to
do so until December.  (School projects deadline coming up very
quickly...)

Cheers,

Anthony
