It probably should be what is displayed in a C locale, at least in the
installer. I think that's a bug. Do you agree?
-C is already exposed in the METAGET interface (with the same meaning)
and used by production code, so I think this may be rather difficult to
change without suffering inconsistency. I suppose -internal could be
made an alias ...
