Note that POSIX Issue 7 TC1 was recently published [1], and there are
some relevant locale fixes.  Specifically, [2] removes the "may fail"
EINVAL error from *_l(), and adds the following paragraph:

    The behavior is undefined if the locale argument to *_l() is the
    special locale object LC_GLOBAL_LOCALE or is not a valid locale
    object handle.
