Well, that client uses old naming convention always
present in locale.alias, so it will be backward compatible
with X.
I don't suggest to _replace_ old names by new ones, I suggest to
_add_ new names.
It can be not compatible with FreeBSD own locale, but such result
even isn't expected.
Imagine Sun's client with its usual LANG=iso_8859-1 (BTW,
Sun use RFC 1700 compatible name!), FreeBSD locale does
nothing, but X locale still works.
