Description 
After selecting the default nl keymap in xorg.conf and logging in into nl_BE.UTF-8 locale, Euro cannot be inputted from the keyboard using the usual shortcut AltGr+E or any other shortcuts. Because xorg is the default xserver in solaris 10u1 and we need to support i18n for all the included locales, this issue is very serious.

Downgrading this to a P3 as there is a valid workaround.

1. Log into system nl_BE.UTF-8 locale
2. run "setxkbmap nl"
3. Press AltGe and 5 to get euro symbol.
