Not really. /usr/share/locales as shipped by Apple is hopelessly 
incomplete. This may be because they feel the native APIs are 
superior to the BSD setlocale() and friends, but it would be 
nice if there was a compatible workaround.

If someone wants to put some effort into getting the locale 
module to work on MacOSX (and maybe even OS9: I think the APIs 
are available there too) that would be very welcome.
