This is a bug in countrychooser. It determines part of locale after . or
@ by using following code:
EXTRA_LANGUAGECHOOSER=`echo $DEFAULTLOCALE | sed -e 's/[EMAIL PROTECTED]//'`
But DEFAULTLOCALE is usually ll or ll_CC.
It should be:
EXTRA_LANGUAGECHOOSER=`echo $FALLBACKLOCALE | sed -e 's/[EMAIL PROTECTED]//'`
