Please be patient; this is my first run-in with reportbug.
As root, I selected en_CA in "dpkg-reconfigure locales". As user, I
added:
LC_ALL="en_CA.ISO-8859-1"
LANG="en_CA.ISO-8859-1"
LANGUAGE="en_CA.ISO-8859-1"
to my ~/.bash_profile, logged out then back in. The environment
variables were there. On running a perl program, I learned they weren't
really there:

The fix was to, as root:
edit /etc/locale.gen
add "en_CA ISO-8859-1"
edit /etc/locale.alias
add "en_CA en_CA.ISO-8859-1"
run "locale-gen"

You can use both en_CA and en_CA.ISO-8859-1.

At least in woody, I can use this locale.

I think it's not glibc bug, but your problem.
Please reinstall or reconfigure locales. I close this bug.
