shouldn't setlocale() return the OLD value? that makes much sense to me since there's no getlocale(), and ini_set() and such behave that way.

I've noticed it returns the current locale when called with '0' (IIRC) for locale argument. But I thought it would make more sense if it was in sync with behavior of other related functions that return the OLD value when a new value is successfully set or false on failure. (see ini_set(), set_error_handler(), error_reporting(), and possibly others.
