Except that MacOS X *applications* (as apart from more POSIXy programs,
and Terminal.app) should not use the POSIX locales, but should use the

POSIX locales format files covering **some** of the CLDR data...)

No, but if I wanted to I would find out.
If MacOS has left the standard-ish Unixy documentation around,
man 5 locale
should tell you the format of loc
Indeed, I can confirm that behaviour for "ö" and "ü". However,
Hungarian does not have "ä" which is part of Volapük. (And if it's

So Hungarian is neither a perfect

Well, the first step is to try to find out what is needed, by trying to find an
analogous case.

More than anyone else, and we need a locale. I did not know there were two

So it is. Do you know how to compile system-level sorting algorithms for such a

Not sure why this discussion is on the Unicode list instead of the

While I do find (in CLDR's collation de.xml) a
I don't find any variant doing the Austrian phonebook variant you mention.
Maybe you could file a ticket for adding that to CLDR. (Using that

So you should be able to define your own locales.
