Yeah, it's too late to consider this for v12.

Also, while I don't think anybody would object to absorbing the upstream
Greek support, there's nonzero work that has to be done to make it happen.
There's nobody here who's particularly tracking what the Snowball project
does, so someone who actually cares about some new feature would need to
prepare and submit a resynchronizing patch.  The above commit and the
referenced discussion threads should give a good example of what has
to be done.  (Hopefully, a resync patch right now would be a good deal
smaller than that one, though ;-))
