<P>In this manual, all mentions of Emacs
refers to either GNU Emacs or to XEmacs, which people sometimes call FSF
Emacs and Lucid Emacs, respectively.
<H3><A NAME="FOOT2" HREF="gettext_3.html#DOCF2">(2)</A></H3>
<P>This
limitation is not imposed by GNU <CODE>gettext</CODE>, but is for compatibility
with the <CODE>msgfmt</CODE> implementation on Solaris.
<H3><A NAME="FOOT3" HREF="gettext_11.html#DOCF3">(3)</A></H3>
<P>Some
system, e.g. mingw, don't have <CODE>LC_MESSAGES</CODE>.  Here we use a more or
less arbitrary value for it, namely 1729, the smallest positive integer
which can be represented in two different ways as the sum of two cubes.
<H3><A NAME="FOOT4" HREF="gettext_11.html#DOCF4">(4)</A></H3>
<P>When the system does not support <CODE>setlocale</CODE> its behavior
in setting the locale values is simulated by looking at the environment
variables.
<H3><A NAME="FOOT5" HREF="gettext_11.html#DOCF5">(5)</A></H3>
<P>Additions are welcome.  Send appropriate information to
<A HREF="mailto:bug-gnu-gettext@gnu.org">bug-gnu-gettext@gnu.org</A> and <A HREF="mailto:bug-glibc-manual@gnu.org">bug-glibc-manual@gnu.org</A>.
The Unicode CLDR Project (<A HREF="http://cldr.unicode.org">http://cldr.unicode.org</A>) provides a
comprehensive set of plural forms in a different format.  The
<CODE>msginit</CODE> program has preliminary support for the format so you can
use it as a baseline (see section <A HREF="gettext_6.html#SEC38">6.1  Invoking the <CODE>msginit</CODE> Program</A>).
<H3><A NAME="FOOT6" HREF="gettext_13.html#DOCF6">(6)</A></H3>
<P>you can also use it through the
<SAMP>&lsquo;MSGMERGE_OPTIONS&rsquo;</SAMP> option from <TT>&lsquo;Makevars&rsquo;</TT>
