| Yes, ISO TR 30112 i18n and glibc i18n are essentially the same, as
| ISO 30112 builds on a bit old copy of glibc i18n locale.
| In turn the glibc i18n locale was built on ISO TR 14652 i18n
| locale, so this is a fruitful relation. ISO 30112 is the followup
| spec on ISO 14652, and ISO 30112 has catched up with some glibc development.
