OK. I was thinking notifying in reportbug would be CC but it is not. I
will write Henry Lin and debian-chinese-big5 (it is actually not big5

I won't expect it appear in Wheezy, but I think Jessie (Wheezy+1)
could be a target for the fix.
Since this is a minor issue it would be OK to fix in the next release.

users. Basically many Debian, Ubuntu and even Fedora/RH users are used
to the translations for a long time.
