Yeah, but this might abandon people in mainland China who use wget.
There're at least 2 zh locales, zh_CN.EUC and zh_TW.Big5.

Put a big5 .mo in zh/ directory is not good for FreeBSD, though.

I've seen some progress or proposal in glibc that would eliminate all zh_*
and integrate into a single zh locale. Some information like encoding name
would be retrived via nl_langinfo() or so.

This is not all Linuxism, but they just leaves *BSD behind. sigh.
