Hmm... Kevin's Omnivore is full of "llyfrgell", which may imply that many
of G/100s files are already using this word.  Full story at 10.

On a side note, while working on gnome_applets, I see "mist" and "fog".
In English, these have clear definitions (IIRC, fog is low cloud with
visibility below 1km, mist is low cloud with visibility at 1km or
further).  However, in Welsh, we have only one word for the two.  Niwl.
Even worse is that gnome_applets have separate entries for
{light,moderate,heavy}\ {mist,fog};  Even worse is that it appears I
have started talking in Bourne ;-P
