It appears to be the default for territories using zh [paths genericized]:
$ locale -m
...
BIG5
...
$ locale -av
...
locale: zh_HK archive: /proc/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32/KERNEL32.DLL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
language | Chinese (Traditional)
territory | Hong Kong SAR
codeset | BIG5
...
locale: zh_HK@cjknarrow archive: /proc/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/System32/KERNEL32.DLL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
language | Chinese (Traditional)
territory | Hong Kong SAR
codeset | BIG5
...
etc.
