[New-bugs-announce] [issue8409] gettext should honor $LOCPATH environment variable

[Barry A. Warsaw]

New submission from Barry A. Warsaw <barry at python.org>:

LOCPATH is an environment variable recognized by locale(1)

http://man.he.net/?topic=locale&section=all

gettext.find() should probably consult $LOCPATH and use that for localedir if the argument is not given.
