Yes, there is only one general template for dutch speaking people.

LANG=nl_BE or nl_NL worked for me under linux; pure nl, nl_AB, nl_AW and nl_SR 
felt back to en_US. This behavior seems a little imperialistic to me. ;-)

Detail, how to tweak the locale settings under windows, can be found on 
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Questions_about_GnuCash_Localization_.28L10n.29_and_Internationalization_.28I18n.29
and

There could also be a setting in gnucash.bat/cmd

Until today, it seems, nobody realised, there was a syntax error in the 
template.

If you know, how to apply a patch, you can take 
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=126945
from http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=514455#c19, 
locate accounts/nl/acctchrt_full.gnucash-xea in your system and apply the 
patch. Later in GC the druid should show up with a proper template.

I hope the patch will do it in the next release.

Sorry for the issue and thanks for your informations.

Tot ziens,
Frank
