locale: avoid segfault freelocale()
PR 4964 Eric Nadler writes: It looks to me like the base structure is not fully initialized with 0 (only a subset of the structure is initialized). This later results in a free of base->collate.index2weight in _locale_set_l. This free tries to free uninitialized memory and segfaults.
