The ISO 639 registration authority uses the "Pushto" spelling for this
English language name (see
http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/englangn.html#op).
In GNOME, we use the ISO 639 spellings of language names in English.
So if you want to change this, please convince the ISO 639 authority.
Then, when they have adopted their recommendations, we can change to
use the other spelling in GNOME.

Keep bugging him. If you get no reply, please let us know, and we'll
halve to resolve this some other way.
