problems with GDK and setlocale on FreeBSD 3.0

[tague netscape com (Tague Griffith)]

I'm having trouble getting Japanese input working under GTK 1.1.12 with
FreeBSD 3.0.

One of the problems is that in gdk_set_locale (gdk/gdkim.c), GDK makes
the call setlocale(LC_ALL,"").  According to the FreeBSD documentation,
setlocale only supports C and POSIX for anything but LC_COLLATE,
LC_CTYPE, and LC_TIME catagories.

Does anyone know of a work-around for this problem?

thanks
/t
