Honestly if I reimplement the underlying code someday, instead of just wrapping a real libc (total "someday" project but defensible to do eventually), I could really make progress on one of my minor dreams - a post-libc world. In particular, dropping a boat anchor on locales from orbit.

And since that statement always brings a peanut gallery - localization is good, very important actually. C locales, though, are the "congratulations, buddy, that's the worst anyone's ever done it" meme of localization.
