gnulib has a few autoconf macros to determine suitables locales:

  gt_LOCALE_FR_UTF8       - french locale with UTF-8 encoding
                          - Use this to verify basic operation in UTF-8 locales.

  gt_LOCALE_TR_UTF8       - turkish locale with UTF-8 encoding
                          - Use this to verify upcase/downcase operations.

  gt_LOCALE_FR            - french locale with unibyte encoding
                          - Use this to verify classical unibyte locales.

  gt_LOCALE_ZH_CN         - chinese locale with GB18030 encoding
                          - Use this to verify operation in locales which have
                            Unicode characters but don't use UTF-8.
