  gt_FUNC_USELOCALE

  dnl On OpenBSD >= 6.2, the locale_t type and the uselocale(), newlocale(),
  dnl duplocale(), freelocale() functions exist but are effectively useless,
  dnl because the locale_t value depends only on the LC_CTYPE category of the
  dnl locale and furthermore contains only one bit of information (it
  dnl distinguishes the "C" locale from the *.UTF-8 locales). See
  dnl <https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/src/lib/libc/locale/newlocale.c?rev=1.1&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup>.
  dnl In the setlocale() implementation they have thought about the programs
  dnl that use the API ("Even though only LC_CTYPE has any effect in the
  dnl OpenBSD base system, store complete information about the global locale,
  dnl such that third-party software can access it"), but for uselocale()
  dnl they did not think about the programs.
  dnl In this situation, even the HAVE_NAMELESS_LOCALES support does not work.
  dnl So, define HAVE_FAKE_LOCALES and disable all locale_t support.
