Re: [1.5.25-7] locale not supported?

Hi
I am programming using gcc 3.4.4 under cygwin 1.5.25-7. Unfortunately
using the locale class form libstdc++ with any non-default locale (e.g.
"en", "en_US", "de", "de_DE", "french") crashes my program with a
segmentation fault. Creating a locale with "" as argument works so.
I tried to investigate the error with gdb, but I do not have the cygwin
sources. It seems the error is thrown at line 77 in the iostream header
file (include/c++/iostream).
Might this be a bug or are locales not supported by cygwin?

Cygwin's locale implementation comes from newlib. It only supports the "C" locale. See "man setlocale" for details.
