So far as I know, the installer doesn't configure the country for wireless regulations. This is fine so long as you use Managed mode, as the wireless stack can just follow whatever the AP says. (For other modes, it might still be unnecessary as the wireless device normally has a country code in NVRAM, besides which many countries share either ETSI or FCC rules.)
