I don't like the idea of throwing out (what appears to be) perfectly 
good code, without an understanding of what exactly is wrong with 
it.  I thought that the C++-based solution that I wrote (using 
heap-allocated "Locale" objects, and relying on the fact that the 
object's destructor automatically gets called when we leave the 
scope) was quite elegant, so I'd like to know why it's not working.

Are there problems in some C++ implementations with the "Locale" 
destructor not being called when it's supposed to, or is something 
else going on??
