>Release:        FreeBSD 2.2-BETA_A i386
>Environment:

	All FreeBSD 2.2-BETA systems using setlocale() with ja_JP.EUC
	locale.

>Description:

	setlocale() in xpg4 library always returns NULL, if locale
	parameter specified with ja_JP.EUC.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Attached sample program compiled as

	% cc -o locale -g locale.c -lxpg4

	Result:

	% ./locale
	setlocale() returns NULL

	But compiled with 2.2-ALPHA xpg4 library, this program returns:

	% ./locale
	setlocale() returns "C/ja_JP.EUC/C/C/C"

	I've tried to another locage categories, but I got same results.

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <locale.h>

	main()
	{
		char *p;

		p = setlocale(LC_ALL, "ja_JP.EUC");
		if (p == NULL) {
			printf("setlocale() returns NULL\n");
		} else {
			printf("setlocale() returns \"%s\"\n", p);
		}
		exit(0);
	}

>Fix:
	
	N/A
