[Bug libc/2800] New: CP1252 usable in all locales supporting ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-15


The fact that CP1252 and ISO-8859-1[5] are almost identical (MySQL's "latin1" is
a cp1252/iso-8859-1 hybrid, see http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=11216) and
CP1252 is widely used on non Un*x platforms for locales (languages) that use
ISO-8859-1[5] on Un*x platforms lead me to believe CP1252 can be safely used in
combination with any locale supporting ISO-8859-1 and/or ISO-8859-15.

Please add the output of

$ for locale in $(grep "ISO-8859-1\(5\)\?\ " localedata/SUPPORTED | cut \
-f 1 -d / | cut -f 1 -d \. | sort -u); do echo "${locale}.CP1252/CP1252 \
\\"; done

to localedata/SUPPORTED.
