hi,

Just checked NetBSD langinfo stuff. I did it in almost same way, but
NetBSD's version is SUSv2 subset, not complete implementation. Our
nl_langinfo() is more powerful and will be extended even more (until
full SUSv2 or POSIX compliance, hopefully). Also there are many
differences in way how NetBSD has implemented locale internals
and FreeBSD. And last -- they don't have complete locale
support, but we have (or almost have).
