Did you try perlfaq - it has a couple of questions on locales.
To start off, make sure your Perl has locale support in it: open
your perl's Config.pm
(it's /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.0/sun4-solaris/Config.pm on my system,
do 'locate Config.pm' to find one on yours).
Lines with "locale" there should have "define" in them, e.g.
d_setlocale='define'.
(Don't just change it if it's undef, rather, have your Perl reconfigured &
rebuilt appropriately).
HTH,
Vassilii

Subject: [OT]Problems with `use locale`
Dealing with Spanish as we are, we always have problems with regexp,
uc() and lc(). I've found that on my dev box, just adding `use locale`
at least uc() and lc() would work allright (meaning ñ got changed into Ñ
properly).
Now I've built a customer's machine with a newer distro and my uc()
is
broken where it was working.
The dev box has RHLinux 6.1 and perl 5.005_03-6
The customer's box has RHLinux 6.2 and perl 5.005_03-10
