Yes, on FreeBSD you just need to make symlinks like the following, under 
/usr/share/locale, for each language you want to enable:

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   15 Aug 12  2005 en_US -> en_US.ISO8859-1
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   15 Aug 12  2005 fr_FR -> fr_FR.ISO8859-1
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   16 Aug 12  2005 hu_HU -> hu_HU.ISO8859-2/
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   15 Aug 12  2005 it_IT -> it_IT.ISO8859-1

Actually I've just noticed a file /usr/local/share/local/locale.alias 
that I hadn't seen before, which may provide a better way, but it may 
not quite do it.
