Gnulib has a number of c-* variants of string processing functions,
eg c-strtod, c-strcasecmp etc  But notably absent are any locale
independent printf routines.   We could use some in PSPP.

So far as I can see, this could be achieved relatively easily, by
arranging for the decimal_point_char function in vasnprintf.c to 
simply return '.'

There would of course, then need to be a number of wrappers to 
produce all the necessary variants.  Would Gnulib accept such a
patch?
