tags 235759 fixed-upstream thanks This bug has been fixed upstream, with a slightly different patch: http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/libc/localedata/locales/de_DE.diff?cvsroot=glibc&r1=1.18&r2=1.19 It has just been applied against CVS HEAD but not against 2.3 branch, so it may take a while before it gets included into official GNU libc tarballs.
