No, not particularly.  The C language standard is quite clear about
that.  Nor does it seem like a particularly great idea from a user's
standpoint for different sub-parts of a program to be operating in
different locales.  Even if I agreed with the concept, your idea of
switching locale constantly is likely to be horrid from a performance
standpoint.
