When compiling with the GPU locale model, the locale.name method returns an empty string. I.e., the following program prints nothing when compiled with CHPL_LOCALE_MODEL=GPU:

write(here.name);

It should generally print the same thing as locale.hostname (this is the case with the Flat Locale model).

  • This was noticed in a test attached to this PR
  • And should probably be fixed as a part of this issue
