 # backward compatibility.  Nobody should rely on the names defined here.
 # Locales should always be specified by their full name.
 
+# Note: This file used to contain the following lines:
+#	bokmaal		nb_NO.ISO-8859-1
+#	franc,ais	fr_FR.ISO-8859-1
+# except that the "aa" was actually the byte '\0xE5' (the Latin-1
+# encoding for U+00E5 LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE) and the
+# "c," was actually the byte '\xE7' (the Latin-1 encoding for U+00E7
+# LATIN SMALL LETTER C WITH CEDILLA).  These lines were removed
+# because they caused 'locale -a' to output text encoded in Latin-1,
+# which broke applications in UTF-8 locales.  See:
+# https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18412
