as discussed in the thread starting at
https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-06/msg00098.html
it looks like the best options is to remove locale timezone information
from locales which currently provide it (in incomplete or incorrect
fashion) rather than to start duplicating tzdata info in glibc.
repertoire maps and character mnemonics were used early in the glibc
i18n/l10n effort but were quickly deprecated in favor of Unicode code
points. According to ChangeLog, the in-tree repertoire maps were
removed 2000-07-07 but some stray references remain even today. The
patch below removes them.
After renaming localedef now complains and build fails
LC_ADDRESS: field `lang_ab' must not be defined
earlier the names were similar to lang_ab definitions 'tu' or 'bh'
but after rename they are not.
Bhili [1] and Tulu [2] language does not have iso-639-1 codes. Patch
moves locale file with correct code and also fix iso-639.def.

* locale/iso-639.def: Update Bhili and Tulu language codes as
per iso639-3.
In the introduction for the official orthography rules for Ukrainian
language (http://spelling.ulif.org.ua/peredmova.htm) there's a note
that only apostrophe does not affect order of the words when sorting.
As could be seen from the official alphabet the soft sign
(U+044C/U+042C) has its hard position and thus affects the order and
also letters "е" and "є" (CYR-IE: U+0435/U+0415 and UKR-IE:
U+0454/U+0404) have their own positions and should have separate place
when sorting.
This also corresponds to official Unicode collation chart for these
letters: http://unicode.org/charts/collation/chart_Cyrillic.html
Both bo_CN and bo_IN were not compiling. The following fix
gets them into a usable state again giving a clean build
result for `make localedata/install-locales`.
