remove white space from Managers locale filenames

Description
Currently BOINC locales are called "BOINC Manager.mo". In Fedora I deploy the Manager with the attached one-line-patch which changes this to "BOINC-Manager.mo" -- for at least two reasons:
1) I can use the rpm's find_lang macro for collecting all locales automatically. This was the main reason for me.
2) Having spaces in filenames is -- in my point of view -- just plain wrong.
I know this is a very minor problem, but if you agree with the proposed change I'd be glad to see the attached patch merged upstream.

That's nice, but why hasn't been this change included into BOINC 6.2 branch?

Because between the mess, the developers easily forget which changes were merged and which not.

Fixed in 6.6 branch in [16757].
I still think it should be fixed in 6.4 branch for a new 6.4.6 version (with other fixes too, of course; a whole new version just for locale renames would be overkill), as it makes the life of packagers easier.
