Ah, I see. Thank you for the hint, Florian! The run-time solution works, 
but I would like to bake the locale location into glibc.

My current build recipe configures GLibc with "--prefix=/usr 
--libdir=/usr/lib" and then I do "make install_root=$sysroot install". 
This generates the right directory structure for GCC to discover 
everything and for the generated executables to run (given the minimal 
rpath tweaks).

Is there a different way to configure/install so that the locale path 
gets baked in and discovered at run-time?

Thanks!
Oleg.
