    Well, if it says that, it is flat wrong, since ll is an ISO 639 (not 3166)
    two-letter language (not country) code.  

That was my mistake in quoting.  Sorry.  Bruno's posted text is correct
as far as ISO numbers goes:

    A locale name usually has the form @address@hidden@var{CC}}.  Here
    @address@hidden is an @w{ISO 639} two-letter language code, and
    @address@hidden is an @w{ISO 3166} two-letter country code.
