That's actually entirely different (that is set under www/ where
languages are named with two letter codes and nothing else) - this
symlink is what will appear on http://www.freebsd.org/doc/ and on the
FTP sites.  The reason I don't like the all "compat" links, is since
when you go to http://www.freebsd.org/doc/ and the similar dir on the
FTP site it's harder to get an overview of the dirs since (almost) all
languages are there twice.

Anyway, if the general consensus is that those links are good I think
we should rename the knob to make it clear it's not for compat.
