--- Comment #6 from Eike Rathke <erack at redhat.com> ---
Actually the "{sd-Arab-PK}" is correct here because the "Sindhi" language
listbox entry we have is for LANGUAGE_SINDHI 0x0459 mapped to 'sd-Deva-IN'
(that's how MS defined the LCID, see
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc233965), shortcut to 'sd-IN' with
suppressed script tag (which suppressing probably may be wrong anyway).

That the language "Sindhi" was displayed for our translation's 'sd' (which is
in Arabic script hence does not match 'sd-IN') before commit
8697b72ef81aab80b4fd657e5f8d68c9904735dd was by mere chance because 'sd-IN' was
the then first 'sd-*' locale known, however mapping the 'sd' translation to
'sd-IN' was always wrong.

That commit then introduced 'sd-Arab-PK' (as an override for 'sd-PK') and a
follow-up commit efa1f08be8194ed97a4b48effd0bbe109d5c2164 changed ordering so
'sd-PK' is encountered first (and then overridden by 'sd-Arab-PK') to match our
translation, this for the correct LANGUAGE_SINDHI_PAKISTAN 0x0859, but for
which a language listbox entry doesn't exist so the BCP 47 language tag is
displayed.

Long story short: we'll need a new language listbox entry, and reword the
existing one.
