Hi guys,

I have been using pcb (along with gschem  and gerbv) on Oracle Solaris
for a while (since Solaris is my primary OSat home as well as at work)
and the toolswork pretty wellfor me.

Deploying those tools on Solaris is straightforward, I justneed to deal
with a small issue when building pcb - compilation fails due to following files
missing <locale.h> header:

$ git status -s
M src/hid/gtk/gui-config.c
M src/hid/gtk/gui-misc.c
M src/hid/gtk/gui-netlist-window.c
M src/main.c
M src/print.c
M src/report.c

Adding <locale.h> to those filessolves the problem.
Tried that on Linux as well (Ubuntu 14.04), but Linux doesn't complain
which is perhaps the reason why that issue has not been reported so far.
I am wondering if it would make sense to file bug for this and fix that.
If desired, I am willing to do whatever is needed to integrate
those changes into the upstream, just would need some guidance
to go through the processes.

Best regards,
Jan
