Re: [Haskell-cafe] FFI binding -- different behaviour under compilation and interpretation.
There is a Cabal package for this already:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/setlocale
A call to `setLocale LC_ALL (Just "")` in `main` fixes things.

It seems that ghci calls setlocale(LC_ALL,"") or similar, while the compiled
code doesn't.
I've no idea why that would be, but
da...@linux-mkk1:~/Haskell/CafeTesting> cat locl.h
void sloc();
da...@linux-mkk1:~/Haskell/CafeTesting> cat locl.c
#include
#include "locl.h"
void sloc(){
setlocale(LC_ALL,"");
}
main = do
setloc
(sequence_ . fmap (UTF8.putStrLn . uncurry fmt)) widths
where...
foreign import ccall unsafe "locl.h sloc" setloc :: IO ()
fixes it.
