+/* On Windows the interaction between the C library locale and libintl

+ * for now.
+ *
+ * There are several issues:
+ *
+ * 1) The C library doesn't use LC_MESSAGES, that is implemented only
+ * in libintl (defined in its <libintl.h>).
+ *
+ * 2) The locale names that setlocale() accepts and returns aren't in
+ * the "de_DE" style, but like "German_Germany".
+ *
+ * 3) libintl looks at the Win32 thread locale and not the C library
+ * locale. (And even if libintl would use the C library's locale, as
+ * there are several alternative C library DLLs, libintl might be
+ * linked to a different one than the application code, so they
+ * wouldn't have the same C library locale anyway.)
