Thank you.

$ PATH_LOCALE=/home/chroot/4/usr/share/locale opera

worked for me. (I believe you meant PATH_LOCALE rather than LOCALE_PATH.)

I think compat[45]x port should include pre-change locale data
files. Then locale-aware binary ports set the environment to point
there in their startup script or pkg-message would be fine.

As we need an additional tweak to keep backward compatibility, it
would be better to be added to 6.0 release notes, too.
