Re: Bug#104413: [patch] Cannot read language links for my mother tongue by lynx

Then you should file a bug report against Lynx, not the web pages.

That looks quite horrible. Anyway, the links now have a title attribute with
the language name in the page's language, so the title for the Japanese link
is "Japanese" on the English version, etc.

Greek doesn't really need this "hack", anyway, since Lynx handles it
correctly (shows up as "Ellynika'" on my iso-8859-1 display), and neither
does Russian, really.
