On second thought, another possibility would be _two_ prerequisites, one NO_GETTEXT_POISON one and one ENGLISH one. The weird edge cases could require NO_GETTEXT_POISON, causing the reader to look to t/README to figure out what is going on. The others would just use ENGLISH.
Does that sound reasonable?
