+The format of locale data can be incompatible between libc versions, and
+loading incompatible data can lead to 'setlocale' returning EINVAL at best
+or triggering an assertion failure at worst. See
+https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-09/msg00717.html
+for background information.
+
+To address that, this patch changes libc to honor a new 'GUIX_LOCPATH'
+variable, and to look for locale data in version-specific sub-directories of
+that variable. So, if GUIX_LOCPATH=/foo:/bar, locale data is searched for in
+/foo/X.Y and /bar/X.Y, where X.Y is the libc version number.
+
+That way, a single 'GUIX_LOCPATH' setting can work even if different libc
+versions coexist on the system.
