g-c-c is gradually changing in this respect. Based on your description I assume
- that you used the "Region and Language" widget, and
- that it is the display _language_ you tried to set.

In that case I can't help asking why you want the language setting
fr_BE. The reason why it's exchanged for fr_FR before being saved is
that there is no Belgian translation into French available. On an
updated Oneiric system "Language Support" has replaced "Region and
Language", and there you won't find fr_BE in the list of languages to
choose from, but only options that represent available translations.

That works with "Language Support".

Please let us know whether these explanations are sufficient.
