--- Comment #3 from Mike Frysinger <vapier at gentoo dot org> ---
we relaxed this in the 2.23 release, and backported it to 2.22:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=0062ace2292effc4135c15ea99b1931fea5e0203

the reason for the breakage was due to a change to the LC_COLLATE category:
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=f13c2a8dff2329c6692a80176262ceaaf8a6f74e

which was later reverted:
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=glibc.git;a=commit;h=87701a58e291bd7ac3b407d10a829dac52c9c16e

due to the way the locale loading code worked, the two were incompatible and
glibc threw an error.  the fix we put into 2.22/2.23 won't help existing
statically linked binaries, and future locale updates will continue to break
them.  all we can say is "you need to relink your static apps".
