Ever since the introduction of thread-local locales having two copies of
functions, normal and _l, did not make any sense anymore. The access to
the locale data in the non-_l code is more expensive. So I checked in a
patch which converts the _l functions in the real implementations and
the old interfaces are mere wrappers. Benefit: there should be no
slowdown and about 10% size reduction of libc.so on x86. On 64-bit
archs it's less since strto*l and strto*ll are the same.
This change should also address the wcstold thing HJ complaint about.
