[1.7] setlocale utf-8

[Reini Urban <rurban at x-ray dot at>]

Can we please clarify some oy my problems with our new locale support in
http://cygwin.com/1.7/cygwin-ug-net/setup-locale.html

LC_ALL=utf-8 does not work. Must contain the language, same as on linux.
LC_ALL=en_US.utf-8 does not work. UTF-8 must be uppercase, in contrary to linux.
LC_ALL=UTF-8 does not work. Must contain the language, like
en_US.UTF-8, same as on linux.

I'm working around that now in the new perl.

fedora core:
setlocale(LC_ALL,"") failed
with    LC_ALL = utf-8
        LANG =
        CYGWIN =
setlocale(LC_ALL,"") okay
with    LC_ALL = en_US.utf-8
        LANG =
        CYGWIN =
setlocale(LC_ALL,"") failed
with    LC_ALL = de.UTF-8
        LANG =
        CYGWIN =
setlocale(LC_ALL,"") okay
with    LC_ALL = en_US.utf-8
        LANG = en_US.utf-8
        CYGWIN =
