Travis Vitek commented on STDCXX-665:
-------------------------------------

Yeah, if I would have looked I would have seen __rw_setlocale. While does make 
me feel better about option (4). This change would allow us to successfully 
open a message catalog when the locale provided to std::messages<T>::open() was 
not the C/POSIX locale. Any proposal for what we would do for this case? Maybe 
just fail?

  const std::locale classic (std::locale::classic ());
  const std::locale en_US ("en_US");

  const std::messages<char>& m = std::use_facet<std::messages<char> >(classic);

  // this would work because we would call setlocale (LC_MESSAGES, "en_US")
  // internally
  std::messages_base::catalog c1 = m.open ("catalog", en_US);
  assert (0 < c1);
  m.close (c1);

  // this would not work because we would call setlocale (LC_MESSAGES, "C")
  // internally, and the NLSPATH lookup is disabled
  std::messages_base::catalog c2 = m.open ("catalog", classic);
  assert (0 < c2);
  m.close (c2);

In that case, I feel like I should use all of 1, 2 and 4.
