The source file for setlocale function (/usr/src/lib/libc/locale/setlocale.c)
contains the line which might put libc into infinite loop:
Line 172:     while ( i < _LC_LAST )
Should be replaced with
Line 172:     for ( ; i < _LC_LAST ; i++ )

And there's one more line to correct in the same source file:
Line 178:     if (category)
This line rely on the fact that LC_ALL is defined to be equal 0. Correct
statement should look like
Line 178:     if ( category != LC_ALL )
