Subject: Re: master 6ed1994d27: Prevent crashes from illegal locale coding systems
Date: Sun, 13 Feb 2022 15:00:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <83czjqrkew.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)

First, we don't use "illegal" in these cases, we use "invalid":
there's nothing against any law in using bad values of some variables.

More importantly, why punting in these cases is the best possible
solution? why not fall back to some reasonable encoding instead?

And how come locale-coding-system is not a valid coding-system there
in the first place?
