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
