I used #ifdef linux macro because in *BSDs don't have

linux or other OS with POSIX i18n frameworks implemented, but I also
suggest another idea to add nl_langinfo() with gnumeric just for *BSD.
This is an ad-hoc implimentation of nl_langinfo() for *BSD.
At least, it works on my FreeBSD machine.
I'd rather not do this in gnumeric. We use nl_langinfo with
different argument types than this stub implementation supports.
Our current approach is to use a configure test for the existence of
nl_langinfo and to ifdef a fall back to a stupid behaviour when it is
not supported.
So there are some policies to development GNOME apps:
1. Complete I18N but ignore *BSD
2. Development also for *BSD users, but just for single byte only.
3. Both
4. Neither
Please explain these further, I'm not clear on what you use the
decide the different categories.
