Okay this at least makes sense to me as to what I am seeing going on.  Thank
you!

Here's what I get:

        toboot # localedef --list-archive | grep ja_JP
        ja_JP
        ja_JP.eucjp
        ja_JP.ujis
        toboot # 

What's interesting here is that I do have ja_JP.eucjp.  Is that what you
want?  Or does the acutal string need to be "ja_JP.EUC-JP" in order for
things to work correctly?

Just for kicks, I tried the following:

        toboot functions # localedef ja_JP -i ja_JP -f EUC-JP
        toboot functions # localedef --list-archive | grep ja_JP 
        ja_JP
        ja_JP.eucjp
        ja_JP.ujis
        toboot functions #

I also tried to set the fuzzy mark and recompiled the ja_JP locale with
compilepo.  I still am not having any luck.  Is there a finer-grained
way of seeing where the string is getting mutated from the locale out
through the webserver?


Thank you,

Jordan.
