This is vaguely on my todo list since forever.
Relevant blog entries about my last struggle with uClibc
internationalization in november are at:

I need to take a new stab at it with current -git.
The problem I had with just making a pregen locale tarball is uClibc
doesn't contain locale data, it copies it out of glibc. And that gets
into GPL "preferred source" questions which bernhard had one opinion on
and I wasn't sure I was comfortable with. (It's in the list archive
somewhere a few months back.)
In February somebody had a patch so the uClibc locale generation ran
better under uClibc, I dunno if this avoids the need for external
locales or not.
