CHAR_MAX on ppc64 is 127 or 255, depending on -fsigned-char or -funsigned-char.
The locale is independent from compiler setting, so I don't think anything
can be done about this (aside from introducing __localeconv_uchar that will be
used for localeconv if __CHAR_UNSIGNED__ and will magically tweak frac_digits).
But that is IMHO too ugly to live with.
I'd say simply make sure to use -fsigned-char if you want strict ISO C99
compliance.
