These arrays should be big enough to store any of supported locale. I'll make define for size (LOCALE_MAX_STRING_SIZE) and put loc2id array strings into arrays to determine overflow at time of compilation in case someone add very long locale.

Is it Ok to apply `indent -npcs' to the sources? Any other switches required/recommended?

Actually it should be 5*LOCALE_MAX_STRING_SIZE, I'll fix it.

And thanks to pointing on these, I've found small bug there. Will fix, retest and resend.
