Is there a specific way you measure the bloat of the C locale?
Is it the size of the resulting libc.so.6 file we are concerned with?

I believe it's built into libc.so, so I suppose you'd have to look at its file size.

I have build the library two times w/wo patch to compare the .so sizes:

(ls -l build/glibc/libc.so)

size without Cyrillic translit
17172016 bytes

size with Cyrillic translit (patch applied)
17180208 bytes

the difference is 8192 bytes

Thanks, I think that difference is minimal and even if we add some amount of transliteration for all implemented locales the effect shouldn't go beyond a few MB, definitely not in the hundreds.
