Haiku lacks locale(1). config.log shows: ac_cv_func_setlocale=yes REPLACE_SETLOCALE='0' I cloned the current haiku svn tree into something browseable: http://repo.or.cz/w/haiku.git/blob?f=src/system/libroot/posix/locale/setlocale.cpp but it's not immediately obvious what locales that supports, nor if it is newer than the 'alpha 2' release. > > From this step, infer whether the problem is that "ISO-8859-1" is not > supported as an encoding in general, or whether it's the combination of > Arabic and ISO-8859-1 that is not supported.
