If by "layout" you mean "keyboard layout", then be aware that locale
has nothing to do with keyboard layout. If you did not mean "keyboard layout",
then just forget what I just wrote...

Well, if I count as a wxPerl user...
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$ export LC_ALL
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$ LC_ALL=
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$ perl -Mblib foo.pl
Using /home/mbarbon/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d/blib
us-ascii
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$ LC_ALL=it_IT
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$ perl -Mblib foo.pl
Using /home/mbarbon/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d/blib
iso-8859-1
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$ LC_ALL=it_IT@euro
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$ perl -Mblib foo.pl
Using /home/mbarbon/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d/blib
iso-8859-15
mbarbon@tweddledee:~/wx/b/gtk/Pcvs-2.3-d$

So I think it works as expected.

Run around in circles, screaming? ;-p Seriously, I added all documented constants
in CVS now; I hope to release 0.12b3 in a few days.
