agreed that the data sources don't appear to be great.  the cited UN
specs are out of date in a number of ways, and i can't seem to find
any more recent ones.  as such, i generally deferred to wikipedia (as
sad as that sounds :D).

i'll try to put together a def file for locale/ similar to other def
files that way we have a standalone data store.  if someone can find
us a better place, would be easy to update+regen.
