Subject: Re: Re: a bug in bindtextdomain() and strip '.UTF-8'
I can't wait, can i work on it and make a patch for these issues if Masanori
Ogino is busy now? I'd like to see that these issues could be solved in
official musl repo as soon as possible.
And maybe rejection for NON-UTF-8, since 'LANG=zh_CN.GBK ./a.out(
setlocale(LC_*, "") )' showed me a segfault with glibc.
