Note that POSIX Issue 7 TC1 was recently published [1], and there are some relevant locale fixes. Specifically, [2] removes the "may fail" EINVAL error from *_l(), and adds the following paragraph: The behavior is undefined if the locale argument to *_l() is the special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale object handle. -Richard [1] http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.standards.posix.austin.general/7004 [2] http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=283
