Frankly, I don't know where this is documented.

But it doesnt work because "deo" is a descendant of "de",
thanks to this definition in lang-ger.tex:

\installlanguage % old german
   [deo]
   [\c!spacing=\v!packed,
    \c!default=\s!de, % < this line does it
    \c!state=\v!stop]

The same is true for a few other languages:

    no (norwegian)      -> nl % BUG!
    uk (british)        -> en
    us (american)       -> en
    agr (ancient greek) -> gr

For Hans: that the norwegian definition is wrong. Even if it
uses dutch hyphenation patterns, it should definately not
use the dutch label texts.

Cheers,
Taco
