+  # Solaris 11.[0-3] doesn't strip the CODESET part from the locale name,
+  # when looking for a message catalog. E.g. when the locale is fr_FR.UTF-8,
+  # on Solaris 11.[0-3] it looks for
+  #   <LOCALEDIR>/fr_FR.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo
+  #   <LOCALEDIR>/fr.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo
+  # Similarly, on Solaris 11 OpenIndiana and Solaris 11 OmniOS it looks only for
+  #   <LOCALEDIR>/fr_FR.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo
+  # Reported at <https://www.illumos.org/issues/13423>.
+  # On Solaris 11.4 this is fixed: it looks for
+  #   <LOCALEDIR>/fr_FR.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo
+  #   <LOCALEDIR>/fr.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo
+  #   <LOCALEDIR>/fr_FR/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo
+  #   <LOCALEDIR>/fr/LC_MESSAGES/<domain>.mo
+  # Create a directory link with CODESET, to work around this.
