Version: 24.0.95

I removed the second one, since HELLO is more for demonstrating
character sets than providing a comprehensive list.

In etc/HELLO there are the two lines:

Dutch (Nederlands)	Hallo / Dag
Nederlands, Vlaams	Hallo / Dag

Since all other languages are named by their English designation,
the second entry should probably be named "Belgian Dutch (Vlaams)"
or "Flemish (Vlaams)".

OTOH, <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_Belgium#Dutch>
says that the language is officially called Dutch which would make
the line a duplicate.
