Oh yes, okay, that's true.  I guess we can ignore those, so it's a
little less dire for 9.6 to 10 then.  We get this instead, which is
still not good:

 cs       | plpython
 id       | postgres
 it       | pg_resetxlog
 ja       | pg_basebackup,plpython,pltcl,postgres,psql
 pt_BR    | pg_basebackup,pltcl,postgres
 tr       | plperl
 zh_CN    | pg_basebackup,pltcl
 zh_TW    | plperl
