Have you tested this code under FreeBSD?

I remember having some problems with
std::locale::global(std::locale(""));
under FreeBSD 6.x.

Basically, it just abort()ed with:

"locale::facet::_S_create_c_locale name not valid".

Something to do with libstdc++/libc incompatibility.
Googling around hints that this issue may affect Darwin (OS X)
too.


Thanks,
Alexander
