It's possible this option name may be confusing. Cf. bug 14259 discussing
the meaning of the configure --localedir option. (I think that bug is
only a documentation issue - install.texi needs to document exactly what
the configure option means, without any change to what that option does.)
Do we want the localedef option to have a meaning completely different
from that configure option, and so possibly add to that confusion?
Also, a new feature like this should have its own NEWS entry, not just a
number in the list of fixed bugs (even if by the time of the next release
we have a system to generate a list with bug descriptions included).
