I don't see an impasse here.  It's pretty clear that the system libintl
is talking to is Cygwin in the first place, and since Cygwin has another
language and *especially* charset setting, that should be honored by
libintl.  Everything else is just about the usage of locale -s/-u in
the profiles and that's entirely within the realms of Cygwin as well.
I don't think Bruno really has a different point of view here.
