If I (re-)compile packages I want to exclude support for internatio- nalization/native languages, unicode and the like. My locale is C.CP850 or C.CP437. And I don't want utilities like sed to be able to recognize or otherwise deal with unicode/multibyte characters.
My guess is that --disable-nls prevents non-en_US manpages and messages. Many packages offer this configure option. sed(1) offers this one and --dissable-i18n. What is the difference? And there are --with(out)-libintl-prefix --with(out)-libiconv-prefix. I would be glad I somebody could shed a light on all these and possible interdependencies.
