I believe it's invalid. GNU gettext itself doesn't honor the LOCPATH variable, LOCPATH is basically used by GNU libc for pointing to locale data. Even though this also includes LC_MESSAGES, gettext has never used it afaik.
If it's not invalid (iow, gettext should use it), it'd first need to be fixed upstream in GNU gettext.
FWIW, I've grepped for any occurrence of LOCPATH in upstream gettext git tree and it returned zero results.
