I don't like this option for two reasons:
1. changes would also have to be made to BSD.x11.dist to cover those
ports that have locale files and use USE_X_PREFIX
2. there doesn't appear to be a canonical list of subdirectories
below share/locale -- certainly there are massive discrepancies
between what some ports write, and the existing locale definitions
in /etc/mtree/BSD.usr.dist -- so keeping things well and truly
in sync is likely to be a non-trivial matter.
