An old 4.4BSD archive that I have has locale.h so I imagine it is pretty
rare.

That and Android seem to require some extra consideration when it comes
to Gnulib.

By the way, my copyright assignment is in progress for Emacs. Since it
seems that you handle most of the Gnulib stuff there, feel free to ping
me if you need help investigating bugs there. Out of all Emacs users I
am probably the one with the least skill in Lisp so I can't help in that
area though. :)
