Just unpack ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/i386/french/locale.tgz
in /. It will make LC_CTYPE=iso_8859_1 work properly.
I didn't try to integrate this in the base system because I don't have the
original sources; also I believe the current LC_CTYPE support is considered
"brocken", but I don't remember the details.
