load of _l suffixed versions of various standard library functions that use
the global locale, making them take an explicit locale parameter. Also
adds support for per-thread locales. This work was funded by the FreeBSD
Foundation.
Please test any code you have that uses the C standard locale functions!

currently cached data. It allows a number of nice things, like: removing
fallback code from single locale loading, remove memory leak when LC_CTYPE
data loaded again and again, efficient cache use, not only for
setlocale(locale1); setlocale(locale1), but for setlocale(locale1);
setlocale("C"); setlocale(locale1) too (i.e. data file loaded only once).
else, it is equivalent to strdup(). So, we will check if the substitution
tables are trivial at the load time, and possibly save 2 calls to
__collate_substitute() in strcoll().
Still, __collate_substitute() should not exist.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
inside libc. Add collate_range_cmp as alias to __collate_range_cmp
for temp. backward compatibility.
collate_range_cmp will be replaced with direct code for each
external program for compatibility with the rest of world
