Given that it is Sid, I'd suspect that this is one of the libc6 problems still keeping it and all depending on it from being put into Sarge. Locales are specific to each libc6 release (at least thus far - dunno if there is effort and/or progress in allowing locales to be independent.) But looking at the file dates, and there are some that obviously weren't regenerated in the more recent libc6 update - I am at 2.3.1-9 here. -- Mark L.
