I am in English environment with Japanese fonts installed.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/ --> English page.
Click ja --> http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/ja/ --> I see japanese.
Click translated Japanese words of "Overview of new features in Apache
HTTP Server 2.4" and I get to English page
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/ja/new_features_2_4.html
Whis is untranslated English page "Overview of new features in Apache
HTTP Server 2.4".
