Problem:
Edition of Specification (Year): 2004
Defect code : 2. Omission
The current text on some utility man pages, for LC_MESSAGES
descriptions of processing of affirmative response and diagnostic
messages, seems misworded. Also, the LC_MESSAGES description
currently says "diagnostic messages" are affected by the setting
of LC_MESSAGES; however, that phrase does not cover prompts
that are used to ask for affirmation from the user.
