Bug#38553: Locale zh_CN not compiled
AFAIK, there remains some problem about multibyte locale in glibc.
It's not possible to write a "complete" multibyte locale. (the glibc
maintainer likes completeness too much.) zh_CN might be disabled for
this reason.
For example, now zh_CN defines LC_TIME and LC_MESSAGES. But
strftime() won't set Chinese translation of month, day, day-of-week,
etc.
