Though included in the OSIS spec, x-E- codes are no longer necessary and
therefore deprecated. With the introduction of ISO 639-3, all of the
Ethnologue codes should have an equivalent ISO code.
Current content has been transitioned to use ISO codes. Older versions
that people may still have could still employ the x-E- Ethnologue codes.

BibleTime source code has some language names with x-E-XXX language

"Chris explained in an eMail how language codes are build:
Preference order for locale codes are:
ISO 639-1
ISO 639-2
Ethnologue (http://www.ethnologue.org/)
We intend to always follow OSIS locale conventions, which state that
Ethnologue codes will be encoded in the format x-E-??? where ???
represents the 3-letter Ethnologue code in capital letters (though
capitalization really doesn't matter here).
Some older modules maintain a former format for Ethnolgoue codes of
xx-???, including the AleWiesler module."
Are these x-E codes really used somewhere? I didn't find any by grepping
the repositories' .conf files. AleWiesler doesn't even exist.
