[bug #21758] "yes" problem with differents languages

[Jim Meyering]

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #21758 (project coreutils):

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the suggestion, but changing yes to honor locale settings sounds
too risky.  I suspect that too many applications depend on the existing
locale-independent behavior.

Can anyone point to an implementation that does output something other than
"y" by default in a non-C locale?  It'd be good to know, but probably won't
change the outcome.
