MinGW's setlocale has nothing to do with GCC, it's provided by MinGW.

What happens if you use a non-statically allocated char* directly,
without involving std::string?


void jme::Locale::setGlobalLocale(const std::string&){
      char arr[] = "";
      std::setlocale(LC_ALL, arr );
}

Or maybe more likely to fail immediately:

void jme::Locale::setGlobalLocale(const std::string&){
      char* p = new char[1]();
      std::setlocale(LC_ALL, p );
      delete[] p;
}
