The upstream patch is backported by excluding a dependency in
stdlib/Makefile whose task is to ensure that locales are generated before
the relevant tests are run. The dependency was added in order to fix
SWBZ#18969 which is triggered when running `make check' for a specific
subdirectory (stdlib here). Instead of this, the locales necessary for the
test are generated via an addition in localedata/Makefile.
