I found there're some interesing discussions about i18n on
this list, so I subscribe to it.
I have done some minor hack to libc(xpg4 part) to make it
support big5, the encoding widely used in Taiwan and HongKong.
The patches are located:
http://waru.life.nthu.edu.tw/~frankch/locale/
These patches are toward some version between 2.2.5 and 2.2.6,
so they might not applied cleanly to other systems.
I am not sure about the way it is done. In fact big5 is not a
good encoding (not conform to ISO-2022), but I can not get rid
of it (it is the de facto standard in Taiwan now).
