// If you're on a system that (for whatever reason) has "setlocale()" but not "newlocale()", then
// add "-DXLOCALE_NOT_USED" to your "config.*" file.

// (or their development environments) don't have "newlocale()".  If, however, your Windows system *does* have "newlocale()",
// then you can override this by defining "XLOCALE_USED" before #including this file.
