+       behavior is not localized (e.g. collating order); why?
+
+{ZW} Translated messages are automatically installed, but the locale
+database that controls other behaviors is not.  You need to run
+localedef to install this database, after you have run `make
+install'.  For example, to set up the French Canadian locale, simply
+issue the command
+
+    localedef -i fr_CA -f ISO-8859-1 fr_CA
+
+Please see localedata/README in the source tree for further details.
+You only get the locale database if the localedata add-on is installed
+when building the GNU C library.
