Checking for commonly used mnemonics like "dollar-sign" ("grep -ri dollar-sign
glibc.git") shows that they are unimplemented. If you think this is important,
perhaps filing a separate bug would be best.

There are nowadays some tips in the upstream manual page which help checking
locales (see http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/locale.1.html).

Thanks.
