Can't speak for Jeff, but my preference would be to drop them entirely
for now. We have not a single SUSv4 locale-aware ctype and string
function declared or defined. Nor do we yet have a declaration or
definition of the related newlocale/uselocale/duplocale/freelocale
functions. Without even the groundwork being available, I don't think
it makes sense to mention these function at all.
