Bug#479803: liblocale-gettext-perl: defines LC_* slightly differently from Perl 5.10's POSIX.pm

[Aaron M. Ucko]

Package: liblocale-gettext-perl
Version: 1.05-3+b1
Severity: important

Upon upgrading to Perl 5.10, I started seeing warning messages from
pdbv's cron job, which I tracked down to a (nominal?) incompatibility
between Locale::gettext and POSIX:

$ perl -MLocale::gettext -MPOSIX -e ''
