Yes, lot's of programs have problems with 'locale'... if you
use LANG, LC_TYPE, etc... because we haven't yet the locale support...

I think we should have locale(1) and localedef(1) somewhere in a package...
Where are the source for this two binaries? In libc5?

A 'locale' package with pre-compliled locale definition files is
good (Christian Hudon will make a package like that), but maybe
users want to use locale(1) and localedef(1) thenself with their
own locale definition files...
