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.
Vulnerable: all programs that use setlocale(LC_COLLATE),
setlocale(LC_CTYPE), or setlocale(LC_ALL). The only setuid/setgid
binary i've found for this is w(1).
Should go into 2.2.
strdup() it to prevent unsetenv() or setenv() effects. Check its length to
not allow user to overflow internal locale buffer. Move PATH_LOCALE
handling code into one place.
POSIX: make better stub for LC_MONETARY & LC_NUMERIC, now it check
locale directory existance instead of refusing all non-C non-POSIX
locales. POSIX treats empty locale env variable as unset variable
while our old code treats it as "C" locale, fix it. Implement previous locale
restoring, if locale setting fails. Old code assumes success if some
of LC_ALL subset is successed even other fails, POSIX treats it as
failure with previous locale restoring, fix it.
Remove unneccessary length checking in currentlocale()
for gcc >= 2.5 and no-ops for gcc >= 2.6. Converted to use __dead2
or __pure2 where it wasn't already done, except in math.h where use
of __pure was mostly wrong.
