+	[BZ #23923]
+	* locale/programs/localedef.c: Declare boolean hard_links default true.

+	(parse_opt): Add OPT_NO_HARD_LINKS case and set hard_links to false.
+	* locale/programs/localedef.h: Declare prototype for hard_links.
+	* locale/programs/locfile.c (write_locale_data): Don't use hard
+	links if hard_links is false.
