Incorrect thousands separator and first weekday for eu_ES locale

Created attachment 5169 [details] Fixes for thousands separator and first weekday First weekday and first workday is Monday in Spain (and therefore for the eu_ES locale), but the current locale data points to Sunday, which is incorrect. Also, the thousands separator is missing (which is a dot '.', U+002E) and grouping has to be done with three digits. Surprisingly this information has been fixed downstream in several distributions, but the upstream version remains buggy. The attached patch fixes the mentioned issues.
Where is the reference for this change?

The first weekday has been fixed now as part of bug 14199. However, we would still need some more references (or acknowledgement by original locale author) for the thousands separator - please see http://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/Contribution%20checklist#Qualification_.28Locales.29 for some specific hints about what we are looking for. Thanks!
