Solaris GCC maintainer question...

I posted the following question about GCC and Solaris locale support to
both gcc-help and libstdc++:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2009-09/msg00212.html

It was recommended I try darwin, or ieee_1003.1-2001 for
--enable-clocale when building GCC.  None of these suggestions worked.
See here for details:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-help/2009-09/msg00238.html

But what I would really like to know, from the Solaris GCC maintainer,
is it a fact that the locale model for libstdc++ is 'generic', for all
versions of GCC from 3.4.x to 4.4.1, on Solaris 8 or newer, and there
will be no support for locales other than C, and POSIX?  If so, what's
the likelihood that this will change in the future?

Thanks... 

Todd
