yes, there is. 
I couldn't figure out which locale on which platform is best, or just works. 
at least for german :)

LC_TYPE "german" works for me on win2000 and linux now, 
but the recommended settings ("de_GE" or "de_AT") do not work as they should.
  (austrians need different sublocales for weekday and month names for
example)
my /usr/share/locale dirs are not very rich on TC_TIME settings. Or I just
cannot find them.

Win2000 has a better native (ie builtin) SDK on this.
