Is this something that is safe to do just before a release like this?  If
so, I'll do it ... if not, someone remind me right afer the release ..

Don't see what's dangerous about it.  The absolute worst case,
if Andreas is mistaken, is that the locale-specific tests stop
working for these locales.  But I believe what he's asserting
is that they're broken already ... so how could you be making
it worse?
