I don't think that's good to use malloc in those code paths, and I
think that we cannot use palloc as well for a buffer passed directly
into this function, so it looks that we had better use a fix-sized
buffer and allocate the output into that. What would be a a correct
estimation of the maximum size we should allow? 80 (similar to
pg_locale.c)?
