+This patch allows us to use glibc's build system to build locales
+in a package separate from glibc.
+
+ 1. Use 'localedef' from $PATH since we are not rebuilding it.
+ 2. Use '--no-archive' to avoid building the big locale archive, and
+ because the already-built 'localedef' would want to write it
+ to '/run/current-system/locale', which is not possible.
+ 3. Pass $(localedir)/$$locale to install files in the right place, and
+ because otherwise, 'localedef' fails with:
+ "cannot write output files to `(null)'".
