Yes it's completely another issue as for dots.
I can find no concrete reference to problems about locale
names containing dots. Is the following an example?
In my environment (Windows Vista using VC8)
setlocale(LC_XXXX, "Chinese (Traditional)_MCO.950");
works and
setlocale(LC_XXXX, NULL);
returns
Chinese (Traditional)_Macao S.A.R..950
but
setlocale(LC_XXXX, "Chinese (Traditional)_Macao S.A.R..950");
fails.
