Yes, indeed. There /are/ differences between Flemish and Dutch as spoken
in the Netherlands, but both language regions are small enough that the
Dutch language teams do not care, and try to find the common denominator
for both when translating.

AKA "Flemish"...

Turns out that there's also a pair of codes for Japanese as well.  I've
committed all three of these to the language list in HEAD.

Joey, are these changes candidates for the sarge branch (vs. simply dropping
srm-reader from sarge, I suppose)?

Not related but I've just discovered abou tthis package and do not
really know what it does, but looking at the README, I found:

FIXME:
Code 4E is Vlaams. What language is that?

Vlaams is a variant of Dutch, mostly spoken in Belgium. I guess we can
assimilate it to Dutch.

Package: srm-reader

Seems it preseeds the language variale to "English (USA)", which is no
longer in the languagechooser list, which makes the default choice on
alpha always be Albanian. I assume it's also broken for the other
languages it knows.
