+[PATCH] gstrfuncs: don't require nonstandard functions for USE_XLOCALE.
+
+Make it so USE_XLOCALE is set whenever newlocale() and uselocale() are
+available. This way, we can still use the _g_snprintf() path for some
+functions, and also use the *_l functions when they are available.
+
+newlocale(3) are uselocale(3) part of POSIX 2008, while the *_l
+functions being used are nonstandard glibc extensions. Gating all the
+locale functionality behind them meant we were using fallbacks on non
+glibc platforms unnecessarily.
+
+Further changes to this code could add fallback for the non _l suffixed
+number parsing functions, but that might be unnecessary complexity.
+
+Fixes #2553
