      But if the
    locale is "en_US", emacs starts with "Latin-1" lang. env. because
    of this entry.

I don't understand why that was done,
since this comment is not very clear.

	;; Users who specify "en" explicitly typically want Latin-1, not ASCII.
	;; That's actually what the GNU locales define, modulo things like
	;; en_IN -- fx.

but I also don't see why we would want to change it.
