setlocale() and localedef should be in any Unix-like OS with locale
support, including Linux. I don't know when they were standardised
but they're certainly in the "Single Unix Standard, version 2" aka
UNIX98:

setlocale() is in ISO C (aka ANSI C) too. localedef probably isn't,
since it is an operating system utility.
I can't help you with Windows, I'm afraid, but good luck.
