So while it would be nice to build glibc-locales-2.32 with glibc-2.33 I
don't think it's actually in use anywhere since IIRC we jumped from 2.31
to 2.33.

Also, for 2.33 I'd like to build it with glibc-final. glibc-locales
doesn't retain a reference to any packages and it would reduce an
instance of using an "extra" glibc when there's already one in the build
environment.
