LC_MESSAGES and BSD/OS

Locale does not work on BSD/OS because it does not have LC_MESSAGES.  I
just got this back from BSDI technical support.  Comments?

LC_MESSAGES is apparently an extension; it's not in the POSIX spec, and it's
not in the C spec I have handy.  (Admittedly, that's C99, but I don't think
anything like this was removed since C89.)  So, recommend you #ifdef that;
#ifdef LC_MESSAGES...[interact with LC_MESSAGES]#endif
