[Bug classpath/22825] Currency formatting lacks support for variability based on value

[gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Some currencies (e.g. the Indian rupee) use a different currency symbol
depending on the value being formatted.  At present, this can not be
implemented, as there is no support in the design of the formatting classes
(specifically java.text.DecimalFormat) for handling this.  The currency symbol
is added during interpretation of the pattern, rather than when the number is
formatted.

Varying currencies are now (well, in a current patch) represented in the format
used by CLDR (e.g. Indian rupees) with substitution postponed to format-time. 
Re-open if any problems result from this change.
