[cl-l10n-devel] i18n/normalize-locale-list question

[Sasha Kovar]

Hi all,

I'm in the arguably unfortunate situation of living in en_US.  Defining
resources in 'en' places them in en_GB (no complaints there).  My default
*locale*, as loaded by get-default-locale, is the single en_US locale,
preventing lookup-resource from finding them.

Using the result of normalize-locale-list as *locale* fixes this, of course. 
Is it more appropriate to e.g.

  (let ((*locale* (normalize-locale-list (ensure-list *locale*))))
     (lookup-resource "hi-there" nil))

everywhere i need to use *locale*, or would it make more sense for
get-default-locale to be calling normalize-locale-list internally?

Thanks,
Sasha
