Oh, I thought I'd tested that (and remember being surprised that
[:alpha:] had seemed to include '_', so I must have deceived myself
there somehow).
Anyway, well spotted :-)
Actually, given that we don't care what's in the first field at that
point, and it's already matched the start of the country code, I think
this ought to work as well:
"/^${L%%_*}/"'{s/^[^;]*;\([0-9]\);.*/\1/p;q}'

I just pushed that change here:
https://salsa.debian.org/philh/localechooser/-/commit/f4845f6c8bad1ca11886ea2cff94653aa25045bc
which (once the pipeline runs) should generate a new mini-iso for testing.
Cheers, Phil.
