thanks for replying

I dont think I am getting a locale enabled build
I enabled i18n support in menuconfig of buildroot
then made the change in 

toolchain_build_i386/uClibc-0.9.28/extra/locale/
copy .config to

toolchain/uClibc/uClibc.config-locale

I would expect to see something like 

build_i386/root/usr/share/i18n

but I only have terminfo and udhcpc in /usr/share

thanks for any pointers
