-Honor a special 'GUIX_LOCPATH' environment variable.
-
-This is most useful when using Guix on top of another distro, which uses an
-different libc version with incompatible locale data.  In this case, setting
-'GUIX_LOCPATH' rather than 'LOCPATH' allows users to tell Guix's libc where to
-look for its locale data without breaking programs that use the other libc.
-
-See <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-09/msg00717.html> for
-some background information.
