Runtime selection of the locale subsystem
in the C library
The C library function setlocale() selects
a locale at runtime for the locale category, or categories, specified
in its arguments. It does this by selecting the requested locale
separately in each locale category. In effect, each locale category
is a small filing system containing an entry for each locale.
C header files describing what must be implemented, and providing
some useful support macros, are given in rt_locale.h and rt_locale.s.
