I don't think it makes sense to add support in Xlib for locales that our
libc doesn't know about.  We're already not syncing with the existing
locales from libc (last time this happened was with glibc 2.3), and
merging that patch for every upstream release is enough of a pain as it
is.

Thanks for sending along the patch, though.

Cheers,
Julien
