I wonder why this has not been backpatched to v12?  I am talking
mainly about changes in IsoLocaleName made by this function.  The
reason why I started looking at this commit is that I wanted to
backpatch some fix [1] in function IsoLocaleName and it seems to be
different in 12 and 13 for no reason.  It is not a big deal but I was
curious to know if there is a reason we can't have this part of code
the same in 12 and 13.  That will at least allow easier backpatch in
the future.  I understand it is not a part of code that is changed on
a regular basis but still, it might be good to keep the code
consistent.
