Sorry if this has already been reported. I think TC1 has come out, but
this is for the original 1998 version (so it may have already been
fixed).

[In another post I said that 27.1.1 should switch "ios_base" and
"basic_ios".]

It seems that section 27.1.1 [lib.iostream.limits.imbue] prevents any
stream-buffer's "imbue", in section 27.5.2.4.1
[lib.streambuf.virt.locales], to do any cascading to a parent. By a
"parent", I mean a base stream-buffer class's version of "imbue" that
the current class wants to enhance, or a contained stream-buffer object
or pointer for filtering purposes. Both cascading cases need the
current stream-buffer's "imbue" to call the parent's "imbue", which
27.1.1 bans.
