The rectangular F19
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#F19> is
disputably classified as "information" because it in fact also prohibits
driving in the other way and hence to U-turn.
The no-U-turn sign C33
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#C33> might be
thought of as one-way, but it is not (it doesn't forbid other cars going
contra-way).
There is no round one-way sign that I know of.  But, of course, a follow
the direction
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#D1>ahead
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#D1>D1
<http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Belgium#D1> placed
withing a street (not at a crossing) amounts to a no-U-turn with the
same remarks as for F19.

Once again, such a specialists' controverted discussion makes  one thing
certain:  those fuzzy road signals must certainly never be used for
routing (restrictions).  oneway=yes is much more obvious and foolproof. 
And it allows software to represent corresponding signals without any
need to tag them if someone likes to turn that option on (with the risk
of having two instead of one).  Remember the noexit=yes story !!!

Cheers

André.
