There may actually be an update-process bug here, because according to
[1], pg_config's nb translation is below 70% in all current branches.
So src/bin/pg_config/po/nb.po should not be propagated to gitmaster
in any branch later than v12, yet here it is in the more recent
branches. I'm suspecting a logic bug that fails to delete files
that should be deleted.
