Well, David, those examples just show that gettext normally works as expected, don't they? My intention with this bug is to point at the possible exception case when a translation of a text string is available e.g. under /usr/share/locale/es_ES but not under /usr/share/locale/es or /usr/share/locale-langpack/es. Then the string won't get translated if LANGUAGE is set to 'es', so I don't understand the significance of the above quote. I believe that either the code or the docs ought to be corrected.
