 It turns out that the caching of values returned from facet virtuals
 is not only meant to be allowed, but it was even specifically intended
 when locale was designed. I will be submitting an issue to clarify the
 standard to that effect. The opinion of the rest of the LWG is that
 behavior of the test case should be unspecified.
 
 Thanks
