NLS was not configured for the version I submitted, so it wouldn't have
worked anyway as the .so was not built. But after some poking in the build
I have now added the lib and fixed the example.

The new package checks both locations (although I don't know if that is
a feature from Locale::gettext or gettext itself):

85:     stat("/usr/lib/locale/fr_FR at euro/fr_FR at euro.so.2", 0xFFBFEB48) Err#2 ENOENT
85:     open64("/opt/csw/share/locale/locale.alias", O_RDONLY) = 3
85:     open64("/opt/csw/share/locale/fr_FR at euro/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
85:     open64("/opt/csw/share/locale/fr at euro/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
85:     open64("/opt/csw/share/locale/fr_FR/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
85:     open64("/opt/csw/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/help2man.mo", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
