It seems the FreeBSD locales might be a bit more borked than I thought,
and just changing the one atomic call may not be a sufficient fix (it'd
likely fix our tests, but maybe not other cases).
It seems like a rare issue, so it probably won't be very high on the
TODO list. I'm sure the FreeBSD folks have enough other work.
I wonder if we should just tweak our tests to do a localeconv_t in the
main function, as a workaround. That should make the failures go away.
It's not a huge issue, but the failures from my animal annoy me.
