Not found at visualserver or cjb.net but sdf.lonestar.org has them in 
X11R6.  Along with iso8859-1 directory containing other info.

This info appears to tell X programs which fonts to use for various 
languages specified in different ways such as C.en Cextend 
English_United_States.437 en_US.88591.en (all iso-8859-1)
and also how to compose in the specified languages.

Will report back if this helps.  See 
http://keesan.freeshell.org/bl/locale.tgz for the three files and the 
iso8859-1 directory.  Other stuff may also be needed.
