You have to enable UCLIBC_HAS_LOCALE and UCLIBC_PREGENERATED_LOCALE_DATA
configuration variables.
In case you don't wont use the pregenereted one you can choose one of the
following
(Enabling UCLIBC_HAS_LOCALE only):
1 - enabling all the uclibc supported locale building as it is;
2 - copy LOCALES in locales.txt (into the directory extra/locale) and remove
from
the latter the unuseful locale;
3 - set UCLIBC_BUILD_MINIMAL_LOCALE=y to enable only few locales And
charset.

If you enable locale support, wide char is automatically enabled.
To have the gettext functionality you have to install the libintl
Library provided by the gettext package.

I think it doesn't make sense use the gettext functionality without
Locale support into the uClibc.
If locale support is disabled, only the "C" locale is supported.
