When I updated brasero, I added the default locale transform to
brasero.p5m:

 	https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5088/commits/eabb958f9a849c651f8f3b881d1d6c2659e4f3a8

When I added 64 bit builds to totem-pl-parser, I added the default locale
transform:

 	https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5086/commits/2f0057f925ae5a9511c828fad71580c008827c0a

Those locale transforms duplicate what's in oi-userland/transforms/locale,
which is applied as part of the publish target.

I was incorrect about the gtk-doc transform, though.  It doesn't look
like that is done by default in the oi-userland/transforms/docs file.
Maybe it should be?
