I asked Siddhesh and he said it is OK:

<mfabian_> siddhesh: Now that glibc 2.26 freeze is ON, what about locale data
           changes like
           https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2017-07/msg00057.html ? Do these
           need to wait for 2.27 or is it OK to do such changes because if has
           an effect only on locale data and not source code?
                                                          [17年07月04日 14:15:44]
<siddhesh> mfabian_, I think locale data changes should be OK.  We do things
           like translation updates on a regular basis during freeze.
                                                          [17年07月04日 14:16:41]
<mfabian_> siddhesh: Thank you, then I’ll commit such locale changes if they
           look correct to me. [17年07月04日 14:17:24]
<siddhesh> mfabian_, sure, go for it :) [17年07月04日 14:17:42]
<mfabian_> siddhesh: The same author posted two new locales “[PATCH 1/2] Add new
           Tok-Pisin locales.” and “[PATCH 2/2] Added  new Fiji Hindi locales.”
           to libc-alpha as well. How about these? [17年07月04日 14:18:46]
<siddhesh> mfabian_, it's just locale data, fine with me [17年07月04日 14:21:49]
<mfabian_> siddhesh: OK, thank you! [17年07月04日 14:22:12]
