Re: [PATCH 1/3] localedata: use same comment_char/escape_char in these files

[Chris Leonard <cjlhomeaddress at gmail dot com>]

I think there are approximately 83 glibc locales (lang-country pairs),
not in CLDR.  Some are trivial fixes because the lang  is in CLDR, in
most cases, the lang is not in CLDR at all

Data in the attached spreadsheet has directory listings of the
relevant folders of most the recent releases for both products.  Tab
namesshould be self-exlanatory.

A few glibc locales destined for deletion (pap_AN, iw_IL) are ignored
as they have relevant replacements.
