Marc is right, with the patch the test in tests/misc/t-locale.c will end
up printing the "Test skipped" message for MinGW.

Moreover the patch to tests/cxx allows compiling the tests for the C++ layer.

The test print that message for any system not allowing the replacement.
Now it prints the same message for MinGW too. It makes sense.
