This is very odd. /usr/include/xlocale.h has been in the source tree for
over three years. In the buildworld process, header files are moved to
/usr/obj very early in the make and used for building world. Do you have
/usr/src/include/xlocale.h? If so, it should be found when building file.
Do you have /usr/include/xlocale.h? (This file should NOT be used in
buildworld, but it is a data point.)

Are you running the "official" system update process? Not that there is
much there at this point.
# cd /usr/src
# make buildworld
