The small work I've done on locale related stuff reduced failed test count
from 621 to 438. Wow. Progress: almost under 10% :) I have attached an
updated "results.Windows" to celebrate, and also the patch I used to run
testit. The TEST_EXE is necessary for GCC compatibility, it does not use the
default a.out, but a.exe instead. I still needed to use a static libc++ for
this run... -Wl,--export-all-symbols seems insufficient for the dll to work
(although nm does show the missing symbols, maybe a clang vs ld problem).
