for people who never setup locales.build and had USE=-userlocales, upgrading 
the new glibc-2.3.6-r4 would have left them with a small set of locales (the 
default that always existed in locales.build)

ive tweaked the logic in locale-gen to not use the default locales.build file 
when they have USE=-userlocales and instead generate all locales by default

LINGUAS has nothing to do with the locales generated by glibc

edit the /etc/locale.gen file and then run `locale-gen` and you should be all 
set

also, not to be an asshole, but this thread really should have been on 
gentoo-user
