What do you get from:

find /usr/share/i18n -iname '*utf*'

(assuming localedef --help lists "System's directory for character maps 
: /usr/share/i18n/charmaps", as described in the post I linked above)?  
I just want to make sure Gentoo isn't changing things around from 
"vanilla" naming.

Thanks,
