[Nix-dev] Why is glibc built w/o locales?

Hi,

is there any particular reason why locales are disabled in the default
configuration for glibc?

I realize that locales can be enable via nix-pkgs.config, but doing that
means that I won't be able to use any binaries from Hydra. I'd like to
avoid that, if possible. I might not be the only one with that problem.

Take care,
Peter
