Title:
  System.Globalization.RegionInfo missing ThreeLetterISORegionName,
  ThreeLetterWindowsRegionName, and CurrencySymbol

Status in “mono” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Compiling and running the code attached (e.g. "mcs
  CurrencySymbolFail.cs") produces:

     Name:                         GB
     DisplayName:                  United Kingdom
     EnglishName:                  United Kingdom
     IsMetric:                     True
     ThreeLetterISORegionName:     
     ThreeLetterWindowsRegionName: 
     TwoLetterISORegionName:       GB
     CurrencySymbol:               
     ISOCurrencySymbol:            GBP

  Note that some fields are empty, including CurrencySymbol which I
  expected to be "£". There is a (very old) discussion on the Novell bug
  tracker which describes a similar issue:
