      The JRE tables for host locale detection need to be
      updated.

      For Windows, current information on defined LCID values is at
      http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/lcid-all.mspx.

      For Unix, there's no list that shows all supported locales on all
      Unix/Linux flavors. One possible way to deal with this would be to add
      all known language and country codes to the existing lists. Another
      would be to assume that two-letter strings are valid language or
      country codes, and map only strings that are longer or known not to
      follow the ISO standard. The existing code maps all unrecognized
      language strings to "en", while all unrecognized country strings are
      passed through, which isn't really consistent.
