Take a look at the documentation for localedef. That is the program that
generates the locale definitions, from a set of input files that should
come with your c lib (well they come with glibc).
IIRC you should just run (to get Danish locale - substitute locale and
charset to suit your needs):

     localedef -i da_DK -f ISO-8859-1 da_DK
