@ixtab, thanks.

localedef --add-to-archive changes Amazon-provided file. This is not so good. It could prevents future updating to new original firmware. Instead, directory with locale definition could just be copied to /usr/lib/locale. It works.

It will be also good to add appropriate locale definitions, not the copy of en_US.utf8. I've tried to copy ru_RU locale definition file and UTF-8 character map (both from glibc Git repo: see locales and charmaps) to KT and compile them there with
Code:
localedef -f charmap_file -i locale_file --no-archive /tmp/ru_RU.utf8
It required also to download a lot of additional locale definitions, which ru_RU inherites from, but in the end successfully produced directory /tmp/ru_RU.utf8 with compiled locale definition.
