After considering this for some time now, I believe Pablo is right,
and that locales should have this if possible.

At the moment, this affects locales af_ZA, ar_AE, ar_BH, ar_DZ, ar_EG,
ar_IN, ar_IQ, ar_JO, ar_KW, ar_LB, ar_LY, ar_MA, ar_OM, ar_QA, ar_SA,
ar_SD, ar_SY, ar_TN, ar_YE, az_AZ, bn_IN, kw_GB, ml_IN, oc_FR, ta_IN,
te_IN and tr_TR.  We need to get in touch with the locale
authors/maintainers/contributors, and get them to check if it is
possible for these locales to include y and n in the yes and no regex.

This is registered as bug
<URL:http://sources.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=305>.  The
arabic locales are bug #71.
