A simple django project with instruction to replicate the bug can be found
here:
[https://github.com/aboutofpluto/django-prefix-default-language-bug-report
github repo]
In brief: `prefix_default_language = False` raises HTTP 404 for the
default unprefixed pages if `LANGUAGE_CODE` is not "en".
I think the problem is that the function `get_language_from_path` in
`django/utils/translation/trans_real.py` returns `None` in case of failure
instead of `LANGUAGE_CODE`:
[https://github.com/django/django/commit/94e7f471c4edef845a4fe5e3160132997b4cca81
#diff-cc1f617ac65a58aec8f73b7a909c5bb48e0391543fe64c4f7ee22d4333a529efL585
diff in 4.2]
Consequently, other mechanisms are used to get the language (cookies or
headers) that do not work neither.
Related issue with my last comment adding some extra context:

It is the first time I contribute to django, I hope the bug report is OK.
I am also willing to write the patch and test if required.
