Ah, for some reasons it's only available on incoming.debian.org (but for
about one and a half day already — that's unusal):
https://incoming.debian.org/debian-buildd/pool/main/g/glibc/libc-bin_2.25-0experimental1_amd64.deb

Sorry that I didn't noticed that detail earlier:

Thanks. Should solve itself as soon as that upload it hits the normal
mirrors.

You didn't specify the package version.

So this is very likely from locales version 2.25-0experimental0 as
currently in Debian Experimental. Please confirm that suspected
version number or tell us which other version you're using.

So what is the problem and where's the bug?

If you install locales from experimental, you should also install
libc-bin from experimental.
