the cache of glibc that gets installed to hard-disk will have all the locale
data and all the locales will stull be setup in the locale.archive. No
recompile will be needed once booted into the new system.
This is only for the iso_root that runs the installer.

When someone submits a translation of the installer and the install.guide
that
language would then become available during install.
