Subject: "France, Metropolitan" should not exist
Locale::Country lists a country with 2-letter code "FX", 3-letter code "FXX", name "France, Metropolitan" - this country code does not exist in ISO 3166: http://www.iso.org/iso/en/prods-services/iso3166ma/02iso-3166-code-lists/list-en1.html Unless I'm missing something, this should be removed. I've attached a simple diff that removes it from Locale::Country, though I don't know if there are any other modules in the distribution that also reference it.
