I have got this reply from Roland McGrath (glibc maintainer): >No confusion, just a bug. I've fixed it. The bug affected ctype functions >after uselocale (LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE), but not other uses of locale data. > > >Thanks, >Roland So, indeed, it's a glibc bug. Unfortunately, it will not be publically corrected 'til glibc2.3.3, I'm afraid, and I don't think is in our policy putting in workarounds, in such cases... I'm open to suggestions, however! Paolo.
