On Cygwin 1.7.0, only the charset portion of a locale designation is honored.
On NetBSD 5.0, in some locales, nl_langinfo(CRNCYSTR) returns the empty string, although the local currency symbol, as returned by localeconv()->currency_symbol, is non-empty.
On NetBSD 5.1, in the "C" locale, the results of nl_langinfo(ABMON_1) ... nl_langinfo(ABMON_12) are full month names, not abbreviated month names.
