44 point into the new current locale for this thread. The magic
45 symbols _nl_current_LC_FOO_used are defined to meaningless values
46 if _nl_current_LC_FOO was linked in. By using weak references to
47 both symbols and testing the address of _nl_current_LC_FOO_used,
48 we can avoid accessing the _nl_current_LC_FOO thread-local
49 variable at all when no code referring to it was linked in. We
50 need the special bogus symbol because while TLS symbols can be
51 weak, there is no reasonable way to test for the default-zero
52 value as with a heap symbol (taking the address would just use
53 some bogus offset from our thread pointer). */
