I was thinking of changing how error_directory worked entirely:

#
#error_directory <directory in error_dir> <langs> <charsets>
#
error_directory /opt/squid/share/errors/English en,en-*,* utf-8,iso-8859-1,
*
error_directory /opt/squid/share/errors/Russian-1251 ru,ru-* windows-1251
error_directory /opt/squid/share/errors/Russion-koi8-r ru,ru-* koi8-r
error_directory /opt/squid/share/errors/Simplify_Chinese zh,zh-* gb2312
error_directory /opt/squid/share/errors/Traditional_Chinese zh,zh-*
big5,x-euc-tw

The error_directory that matches all languages(*) and all charsets(*)
would be the "fallback" language.

*nods*

I've been coding against squid-head-200112230001 . One of the first
things to get changed was how the default language is handled. :)
Compiletime still works, but I added a squid.conf directive. With an
xlate table, that directive would go away as should the compile time,
I'd think.

Thanks!
