12	I need the same for PKG_INSTALL_MASK

14	I hope this allows me to do:
15	INSTALL_MASK="/usr/share/i18n/locales/* -/usr/share/i18n/locales/en_GB -/usr/share/i18n/locales/sv_SE"
16	to all in /usr/share/i18n/locales/* but /usr/share/i18n/locales/en_GB and /usr/share/i18n/locales/sv_SE
17	removed in usr/share/i18n/locales/ ?
