Thanks for your patches.
I merged almost your patches at https://github.com/ruby-gettext/locale.
But I couldn't understand a problem that is described in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=521169.
It seems that LANG=en is the problem not locale gem problem.
Could you describe me about the problem?

I don't know what I was thinking about #521169, but my patches have no relation to it :) It looks like current Driver::Posix doesn't sets LANG, and this bug is related only to 1.93.

Thanks for your comment!
OK. I'll ignore #521169!

I've noticed only recently that you, kou, have changed LC_CTYPE into LC_CTYPES. That's not correct, change it back to LC_CTYPE. You may use this trivial patch from debian.

Also you haven't integrated this patch (it' a part of commit 0ef254f mentioned above ). Without it Locale.current.charset in C/POSIX locale returns nothing instead of ANSI_X3.4-1968.

And please enable issues reporting for your repository like you did for gettext.
