strfmon failures

Hi!

With de_DE etc. locales transitioning from dead currencies to EUR, strfmon
started to fail (for obvious reasons, it expects DM/DEM for de_DE).
What is the preferred fix?
Choose a different locale for strfmon test, so that it has 2
char currency_symbol and 3 char int_currency_symbol (ideally ASCII only;
hu_HU (Ft/HUF) might be a good candidate), or recompute dat_strfmon.c? The
latter might be more difficult, since it is EUR/EUR in iso-8859-1 and
<U20AC>/EUR for utf8.
