FreeBSD uses two utilities to generate locale data files: mklocale generates
LC_CTYPE files, and colldef generates LC_COLLATE files. The rest are text
files, which are written by hand. FreeBSD 5.1 and later already come with
two ca_ES locales: ca_ES.ISO8859-1 and ca_ES.ISO8859-15. The easiest way
to get these locales on an earlier release would probably be to copy
/usr/share/locale/ca_ES* from a 5.1/5.2 system. The alternative is to
check out the relevant files from CVS and run mklocale/colldef manually.
