Thank you for this. From a discussion on another report I filed and your comments on #144670 and #185991 I got to understand this. We can indicate the same in the files if upstream has frozen the file. Also, /usr/share/gettext/intl/locale.alias and /etc/locale.alias seem to have conflicting susbtitution values for the same locale alias. Consdering the above, I guess it wouldn't make sense to submit a bug if there will not be a change to those files.
