[Mingw-users] Problem with setlocale

[Немос <nemos-linux@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have some problem with setlocale() - when I try to change
output code page it does not work. I use this example to
test setlocale():

#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    try
       {
          char  text[]="Привет";
          setlocale(LC_CTYPE,".866");
          puts(text);
          setlocale(LC_CTYPE,".1251");
          puts(text);
       }
    catch (...)
       {
          printf("catch exception");
       };
    return 0;
};

Build by command
g++ main.cpp -o 1.exe

Program print two identical string, but in different code
page it must be different text.

I test it with gcc-*-3.4.5-20060117-1 and 
gcc-*-3.4.5-20060117-2.

In VS this code work fine.

What I do wrong?

P. S.
Sorry for my english.
