These only apply to LC_CTYPE (character set) at present.
(See the locale(1) man page for a list of locale categories.)
The other LC_ categories are no-ops on OpenBSD (apart from
LC_MESSAGES which is handled by GNU gettext, and only for
ports and not the base system).
In the documentation this fact is hidden in the setlocale(3) man page:
BUGS
The current implementation supports only the "C" and "POSIX" locales for
all but the LC_CTYPE locale.
