We have a somewhat odd problem in l10n, as we're usually fixing bugs on
branch, and then port to trunk.

So, for new locales, we start working on the 1.9.1 branch, work towards
resolving the bug FIXED there and then need to find a way to track if
the bug is fixed on trunk, too.

I don't really recall what we came up with, I think I personally leaned
towards a "fixed-1.9.2" keyword.
