I know that the whole approach wrt non-installed locales is
in (positive!) flux, but I would like to change the chosen
names to something actually installed by the last released
version of the library.
Another short follow up: I have just learned that a few widespread
distributions (e.g., RH8) ship with the en_US.UTF-8 locale
installed and some other too besides those produced by the
standard `make localedata/install-locales'. This explains why
some people are only seeing failures for the /3.cc tests...
A this point, besides robustifying the testsuite wrt non-installed
localedata, which is a very good thing IMO, we should either
use in the testcases locales installed by default by stock glibc (as I
suggested yesterday), or explain in the docs where the necessary
localedata can be found/generated via localedef.
