run/locale.t fails the following tests:

ok 37 # skip no locale available where LC_NUMERIC radix isn't '.'
not ok 38 - In setting complicated invalid LC_ALL, final individ category doesn't need a ';'
# Failed test 38 - In setting complicated invalid LC_ALL, final individ category doesn't need a ';' at run/locale.t line 498
# got "65280"
# expected "0"
not ok 39 - In setting complicated valid LC_ALL, final individ category doesn't need a ';'
# Failed test 39 - In setting complicated valid LC_ALL, final individ category doesn't need a ';' at run/locale.t line 507
# got "65280"
# expected "0"
1..39

The "invalid string" in the first case is:

LC_COLLATE=foo_BAR;LC_CTYPE=foo_BAR;LC_MESSAGES=foo_BAR;LC_MONETARY=foo_BAR;LC_NUMERIC=foo_BAR

The "valid string" in the second case is:

LC_COLLATE=Afrikaans;LC_CTYPE=Afrikaans;LC_MESSAGES=Afrikaans;LC_MONETARY=Afrikaans;LC_NUMERIC=Afrikaans

Tony, is this a machine from which smoke-test reports are (or could be) submitted?

There's probably a truckload of dist many of us never heard of :)
http://distrowatch.org/table.php

As far as I am aware, Alpine Linux is quite popular with docker-image
creators. It is a very small dist, very suitable for that purpose. I
noticed that this dist (as my colleagues also use it in docker), quite
often require timezone adjustments on startup. I'd call that its
weakest issue.

As you can see in this table:
http://distrowatch.org/table.php?distribution=alpine

Alpine stopped including perl in their dist as of version 3.6.2
In that action, also python, postfix, postgresql, and samba were
removed. (As I started assembling and monitoring this list in 2018-07
all changes before that I don't know, so it might have been version
3.6.0 or something else)

In https://github.com/Tux/System-Info/blob/master/sandbox/dist-perl.csv
I keep an up-to-date list of what Linux distribution ships which
version of perl:

$ grep -i alpine sandbox/*csv
alpine,3.9.1,2019-03-01,--
alpine,3.6.2,2017-06-17,--
alpine,3.2.2,2015-07-14,5.20.2
alpine,2.7.8,2014-05-21,5.18.1
alpine,1.10.6,2010-06-16,5.10.1

$ csv-check sandbox/*csv
Checked sandbox/dist-perl.csv with csv-check 2.01
using Text::CSV_XS 1.38 with perl 5.28.1 and Unicode 10.0.0
OK: rows: 1974, columns: 4
sep = <,>, quo = <">, bin = <1>, eol = <"\r\n">

Not practically, no.

It's a VM running on my desktop.

This is fixed in blead.
