Bug Description

In Flemish the rules for the eurosign are as follows:
€ 2,50
2,50 EUR

However, with the current nl_BE locale I get the following:
2,50 €
2,50 EUR

From looking at the LC_MONETARY file, I believe this could be fixed by changing "p_cs_precedes=0" to "p_cs_precedes=1"

(as a side note, the Dutch nl_NL monetary rules are correct
€ 2,50
EUR 2,50 )
