As current maintainer, I strongly recommend to drop language-env from
all task files.
language-env is unuseful (even harmful) on UTF-8 environment for
normal users.
Although language-env gives good examples for i18n developers to know
other language environments, it wouldn't fit for Squeeze or even Sid
anymore, I think.
