Kurdish is not the official language of Turkey

I believe this is due to Windows' general brokenness.  Windows is
sufficiently broken that many people do not use a coherent locale, if
it even has a concept of a coherent locale.  At least, this is the
impression I have gotten from various translation complaints over the
years.  I don't know, I use a C translation locale and non-Windows
operating systems.

Our Turkish translation has not been updated since 2007.  I am in the
process of hopefully bringing in a complete update.
