Change 236966 had a related patch set uploaded (by Alex Monk):
Also update langlist for be-x-old -> be-tarask rename
This is because wgConf still uses the old language. We have to do that to make it find the right database name though.
Change 236966 abandoned by Brion VIBBER:
Make MediaWiki treat $lang of be_x_oldwiki as be-tarask, just don't change the real DB name
Reason:
Abandoning this in favor of a config switch that is off by default for now, same as our MP4 support. We can flip the switch, or the default state of the switch, when legal & community sign off.
Change 236966 restored by Brion VIBBER:
Make MediaWiki treat $lang of be_x_oldwiki as be-tarask, just don't change the real DB name
Reason:
Wrong commit sorry!
