It is an upstream patch, not my own.

The problem can only be reproduced on systems where the LOCALE
(LC_NUMERIC) in use forces "," as the decimal point specifier.

I'm not 100% sure it is the "," vs. "." issue which is the problem, as
the original reporter didn't report the LC_NUMERIC of his system yet.

In any case, the reporter stated that the patch fixed the issue for
them, and was included upstream to fix the same problem reported
elsewhere.
