Hmm well the KOI8 tests unsurprisingly produce random results on non-
KOI8 input. It's pure chance you didn't get EILSEQ.
What errno did you get for the C locale test? On which input character?
Perhaps it's sihnalljng EILSEQ for every byte >0x80 ? That seems
broken to me but perhaps not to a glibc pedant out there.

See attached test program. It tries to convert multibyte russian
word in UTF8 to wide char with C, ru_RU-KOI8-R and ru_RU.UTF-8
locales. The word contains 6 letters.
FreeBSD 7.2 (short output):
========C==========
mbstowcs returns 12
========ru_RU.KOI8-R==========
mbstowcs returns 12
========ru_RU.UTF-8==========
mbstowcs returns 6
Linux 2.6.23 libc 2.5 (short output):
========C==========
mbstowcs returns -1
========ru_RU.KOI8-R==========
mbstowcs returns 12
========ru_RU.UTF-8==========
mbstowcs returns 6
The program also prints test of iswalpha:
