There is yet one special variant, f.e. LANG=de_DE.ISO_8859-1 user will be
pleased to view en.ISO_8859-1 pages more than ASCII ones. So there is
small patch needed to make man (catman, etc.) search as following:

<lang>_<country>.<codeset>  	# already implemented
<lang>.<codeset>  		# already implemented
en.<codeset>  			# new
standard			# already implemented

Yes, symlinks can be done too, as mtree(1) says.

At least back out man changes, please.
If you have energy to do the rest, you are welcome.
