[Buildroot] Broken generation of locales

[Thierry Bultel]

Hi Thomas,

This does not exactly revert the named commit, that
added 's' for both inputfile and charmap.

I pretend that the 's' option is mandatory for charmap only,
else inputfile is always empty:

inputfile:

thierry at thierry-desktop:~$ echo fr_FR | cut -f1 -d '.'
fr_FR
thierry at thierry-desktop:~$ echo fr_FR | cut -f1 -d '.' -s
thierry at thierry-desktop:~$

charmap:

thierry at thierry-desktop:~$ echo fr_FR.utf8 | cut -f2 -d '.'
utf8
thierry at thierry-desktop:~$ echo fr_FR.utf8 | cut -f2 -d '.' -s
utf8

thierry at thierry-desktop:~$ cut --version
cut (GNU coreutils) 7.4


Cheers
Thierry
