I made a comment that you might need to upgrade xsrc.  That's not
really true here.  I had some memory of Xlocale.h trying to use it's
own setlocale() frontend but that's not true for our system.  If you have
current headers, src/lib/libc and src/share/locale installed you
shouldn't have a problem.  i.e. something like (with the first two maybe
optional)
	% rm -rf /usr/share/locale/*.*
	% mtree -u -p / -d -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/NetBSD.dist
	% cd /usr/src; make includes
	% cd /usr/src/lib/libc; make dependall install
	% cd /usr/src/usr.bin/mklocale; make dependall install
	% cd /usr/src/share/locale; make dependall install

The other benefit of now building xsrc is that setlocale() calls
within X will use the current setlocale (__setlocale_mb_len_max_32())
instead of the old setlocale and you won't get the warning:
  warning: reference to compatibility setlocale(); .....
when you link against X11 :-)
