The problem with the Dutch dictionary is that the use of a two-character flag value:

```auto
KEEPCASE Kc

```

comes before the long flag is enabled in this line:

```auto
FLAG long

```

### Solution

Move the `FLAG long` line up in the `nl_NL.aff` file, so that it comes before the `KEEPCASE Kc` line. Then it works.
