Re: ICU Modularization

We have already separated currency information out of the locales,
since it is orthogonal. The only thing that should be in en_US and
other country extensions are cases that differ in real language
features.

See
http://oss.software.ibm.com/cvs/icu/~checkout~/icu/source/data/locales/en_US.txt

If there are any exceptions to that, they are probably errors. (There
are some known case where there are spurious duplicates between child
and parent locale. Those don't hurt anything, but we should clean them
up some day).
