Subject: how does rw_locales() work on Windows?

The rw_locales() function defined in the driver invokes the "locale -a" command regardless of the platform (i.e., including Windows). When I run tests that invoke the function from within the IDE they produce errors because the locale utility can't be found (it's probably not in PATH). I'm curious: how do others run tests on Windows so that calls to rw_locales() succeed ? Farid?

    When I debug the single test, I have just copy locale.exe and
localedef.exe (and libstdxx.dll in dynamic builds) to some directory
in the path (i.e. c:\windows) and remove them later.

I see. That doesn't seem very convenient. I suppose the problem
is essentially the same as with stdcxx.dll not being in PATH when
I try to run programs from the IDE. It seems that we should have
a solution for this quirk. I can't see people being happy with
having to manually copy executables in order to run them. Do
you have any suggestions for how to deal with it?

Martin
