summary

Formatting issuses with "@compat=host" for some locales on down-level versions of Windows.

Description

On versions of Windows lower than Win10 version 1703, using "@compat=host" will cause issues with date/number formatting for a handful of locales. This is mainly due to the locales changing names between OS releases, while keeping the same LCID. (Win7 -> Win8 -> Win8.1 -> Win10).

            0x040a, /* es-ES_tradnl;es-ES-u-co-trad; */
            0x048c, /* fa-AF;prs-AF;prs-Arab-AF; */
