Thanks. I'll sure annoy you if that doesn't happen ;-)

Watch out for the caveat I already mentioned: localedef has a built-in 
map of country code numbers to country codes, as assigned by ISO 3166.

Yet, the numeric code for CS/SCG is the same as the one for YU/YUG, so 
that's the only problem localedef reports for me (perhaps this is fixed 
in glibc CVS, but it might not be, since this became official on July 
24).

(I've also put another version at http://srpski.org/locale/ that 
doesn't use the <Uxxxx> escapes, if that will ease reading at least a 
bit: the files "read-sr_CS" and "read-sr_CS@Latn" in UTF-8 encoding).


Cheers,
