Thanx, I understand that POSIX directly specify -1 when it wants CHAR_MAX
:-)

There is some sort of conflict or maybe just different levels, i.e.
SUSv2 says that CHAR_MAX (127), non-negative, says it especially in:

http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/localeconv.html

must be treated as no-conversion.

Do you mean POSIX _locale_definition_ (where -1 can indicate CHAR_MAX
since CHAR_MAX is machine-dependent and nobody knows it) or you mean POSIX
localeconv() fields? (if later, there is SUSv2 vs. POSIX strong conflict
and we need to think about it more).

BTW, the main problem remains that localeconv() currently just return
locale string for *grouping, without parsing it to byte-fields.
