Hello,

some tme ago I imported from DIY linux the statement that none of the locales are really required. As it stands now, this statement is wrong. When checking whether the ctype macros accept non-ascii characters, Bash configure script attempts to set the en_US.ISO8859-1 locale. However, it may or may not be present, thus the result may vary.

Two solutions:

1) mark the en_US locale as required, don't change bash instructions
2) don't mark any locales as required, add "bash_cv_func_ctype_nonascii=yes" to the end of bash configure line

My preference is (2). Please don't import this into HLFS, because I think that "no" would be the correct result for uClibc.
