gnu: glibc: Look for locale data in versioned sub-directories.
Suggested by Mark H Weaver <mhw@netris.org>.

* gnu/packages/patches/glibc-versioned-locpath.patch: New file.
* gnu-system.am (dist_patch_DATA): Add it.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc)[source]: Use it.
  [arguments]: Add explicit version sub-directory to
  libc_cv_localedir.
  [native-search-paths]: Use 'GUIX_LOCPATH' instead of 'LOCPATH'.
  (glibc-locales, glibc-utf8-locales): Write to a VERSION
  sub-directory.

+The format of locale data can be incompatible between libc versions, and
+loading incompatible data can lead to 'setlocale' returning EINVAL at best
+or triggering an assertion failure at worst.  See
+https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2015-09/msg00717.html
+for background information.
+
+To address that, this patch changes libc to honor a new 'GUIX_LOCPATH'
+variable, and to look for locale data in version-specific sub-directories of
+that variable.  So, if GUIX_LOCPATH=/foo:/bar, locale data is searched for in
+/foo/X.Y and /bar/X.Y, where X.Y is the libc version number.
+
+That way, a single 'GUIX_LOCPATH' setting can work even if different libc
+versions coexist on the system.
