    Problem Text
    This fails on VSX4.2.3 due to a problem with the test suite.
    Our system passes the test using VSX4.2.4beta where this test has
    had an additional block of code inserted at the start of this testset to call
    setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,"C").
    Test Output
    ************************************************************************
    /tset/XOPEN.os/locale/catopen/T.catopen 2 Failed

    Test Description:
    If oflag is set to zero, name does not contain a "/" and the
    environment variable NLSPATH exists, then catopen() opens the message
    catalogue specified and returns a catalogue descriptor for it, using
    NLSPATH as a search path such that :
    a. a ":" (colon) in the search path is used as a delimiter for
    each individual pathname;
    b. a "%N" in the search path is substituted by the value of the
    parameter name passed to catopen();
    c. a "%L" in the search path is substituted by the value of the
    environment variable LANG;
    d. a "%l" in the search path is substituted by the language
    element of the environment variable LANG;
    e. a "%t" in the search path is substituted by the territory
    element of the environment variable LANG;
    f. a "%c" in the search path is substituted by the codeset
    element of the environment variable LANG;
    g. a "%%" in the search path is substituted for a single "%"
    character;
    h. a null string is substituted if any of name, language,
    territory or codeset are not specified;
    i. the separators "_" and "." are not included in the "%t" and
    "%c" substitutions;
    j. a leading or two adjacent colons ("::") is equivalent to
    specifying "%N".

    Test Strategy:
    SET LANG and NLSPATH
    OPEN catalogue using catopen()
    VERIFY that catopen() was able to open all message catalogues

    Test Information:
    catopen(, 1) failed
    catopen substitutes %L in NLSPATH with LANG
    Expected return value: (valid catd)
    Actual return value: -1
    catopen(test, 1) failed
    catopen substitutes %l in NLSPATH with the language from LANG
    Expected return value: (valid catd)
    Actual return value: -1
    catopen(test, 1) failed
    catopen substitutes %t in NLSPATH with the territory from LANG
    Expected return value: (valid catd)
    Actual return value: -1
    catopen(test, 1) gave wrong catalogue
    catopen substitutes %c in NLSPATH with the codeset from LANG
    Expected catalogue identifier: Catalogue ./test.CS.c_t
    Actual catalogue identifier: Catalogue ./test..c_t
