POSIX 2008 locale support integrated (illumos)
A year in the making... and finally the code is pushed. Hooray! I've just pushed 2964 into illumos , which adds support for a bunch of new libc calls for thread safe and thread-specific locales, as well as explicit locale_t objects. Some of the interfaces added fall under the BSD/MacOS X " xlocale " class of functions. Note that not all of the xlocale functions supplied by BSD/MacOS are present. However, all of the routines that were added by POSIX 2008 for this class are present, and should conform to the POSIX 2008 / XPG Issue 7 standards. (Note that we are not yet compliant with POSIX 2008, this is just a first step -- albeit a rather major one.) The webrev is also available for folks who want to look at the code. The new APIs are documented in newlocale(3c), uselocale(3c), etc. (Sadly, man pages are not indexed yet so I can't put links here.) Also, documentation for some APIs that was missing (e.g. strfmon(3c)) are now added. This project has
