Works as expected with PHP 5.4.21 / ICU 53
$nf = new NumberFormatter("de-DE", NumberFormatter::CURRENCY);
var_dump($nf->formatCurrency(12.99, "CHF"));
Actual Result:
--------------
string(10) "12,99Â CHF"

Re-Opening this as this should be made clear in the documentation. Can be quite unexpected.

They do not have "1 Rappen" coins! That is the reason.

Description:
------------
I am not from Switzerland, but as far as I know they do have "Rappen", and 1 CHF is equal
to 100 Rappen.
So putting float 12.99 to NumberFormatter::formatCurrency should return the said 12,99
("," is the correct decimal separator for de_DE), but what it does is to output 13,00
which is not correct!
Test script:
---------------
$varNumberFormatter1 = new NumberFormatter("de_DE", NumberFormatter::CURRENCY);
var_dump($varNumberFormatter1->formatCurrency(12.99, "CHF"));
$varNumberFormatter2 = new NumberFormatter("de_DE", NumberFormatter::CURRENCY);
var_dump($varNumberFormatter2->formatCurrency(12.99, "EUR"));
Expected result:
----------------
string(10) "12,99 CHF"
string(10) "12,99 â¬"
Actual result:
--------------
string(10) "13,00 CHF"
string(10) "12,99 â¬"
