Hi!

cd /etc/sysconfig
localedef hu_HU.iso88592 -i hu_HU -f iso88592

segfaults after printing a bunch of various errors (errors are ok and
expected, but the segfault is not).
/etc/sysconfig is just a random directory that contains for localedef
bogus i18n source:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"
and in addition to this user error there is also invalid charmap name.
With this, localedef calls find_translit eventhough there is
locale->categories[LC_CTYPE].ctype == NULL (locale->avail has CTYPE_LOCALE
bit set only because locfile_read ors it at the end with not_here).
When locale->categories[LC_CTYPE].ctype == NULL, we know localedef will warn
and set LC_CTYPE category to a default, which certainly has both
translit and translit_include set to NULL, so IMHO returning NULL from
find_translit in this case right away is the right thing to do.

	* locale/programs/ld-ctype.c (find_translit): Return NULL if ctype is
	NULL.
