 The following entries have to be added as well
(ISO-8859-15 or UTF-8 has to be used for Euro.)

   en_ZA.ISO-8859-15                               en_ZA.ISO8859-15
   en_ZA.iso885915                                 en_ZA.ISO8859-15
   en_ZA.utf8                                      en_ZA.UTF-8

You also have to add en_ZA entries to locale.dir and compose.dir:

-----locale.dir---------
en_US.UTF-8/XLC_LOCALE                  en_ZA.UTF-8
iso8859-1/XLC_LOCALE                    en_ZA.ISO8859-1
iso8859-15/XLC_LOCALE                   en_ZA.ISO8859-15

-----compose.dir---------
iso8859-1/Compose                     en_ZA.ISO8859-1
iso8859-15/Compose                    en_ZA.ISO8859-15
en_US.UTF-8/Compose                   en_ZA.UTF-8
