That's the one thing that the new types don't offer but that was often
problematical anyway. In fact, I even submitted a patch to cash.c to
remove the currency symbol based on earlier discussions. The only
reason it wasn't added was that the type was supposed to be removed
soon anyway. Perhaps we should apply the patch anyway for now until
it is removed.
