FTR, that's a discussion of Fedora/RedHat developers.

This OpenSuse/Suse PR ( "wrong "locale -a" output for
ja_JP.SHIFT_JISX0213 and hy_AM.armscii-8" ,
https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=162501 ) also discusses
this topic and links to related glibc maintainers discussions:

- http://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2000-10/msg00311.html

Thanks,
