For a root locale "eo" or "eo_ZZ" seems reasonable, but in practice I suspect
that Esperanto locales will need to have localizations, i.e. eo_US which uses
the U.S. conventions for currency and so on.  Unfortunately "locale" combines a
number of partly orthogonal concepts -- some of which may even be user or
application specific and need to be overridden.  An example of the latter was a
previous employer of mine which had to distribute an "en_US@Transmeta" locale
to all systems to support a single application, so that %' could be used to
print numbers with underscore thousands separators.
