With my garbage collector hat on, that made me wonder if there was
some more potential cleanup here: could we require locale_t yet? The
last straggler systems on our target OS list to add the POSIX locale_t
stuff were Solaris 11.4 (2018) and OpenBSD 6.2 (2018). Apparently
it's still too soon: we have two EOL'd OSes in the farm that are older
than that. But here's an interesting fact about wrasse, assuming its
host is gcc211: it looks like it can't even apply further OS updates
because the hardware[1] is so old that Solaris doesn't support it
anymore[2].
