If using

set terminal postscript eps
set decimalsign locale

(locale is de_DE.UTF-8) the resulting .eps file contains lines like:

[..]
/gnulinewidth 5,000 def
[..]
/hpt_ 31,5 def
/vpt_ 31,5 def
[..]

and much more. But gs doesn't like them and fails:

gs -q -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dAutoRotatePages=/None -sOutputFile=test.pdf test.eps 
-c quit
Error: /undefined in 5,000
[..]
GPL Ghostscript SVN PRE-RELEASE 8.64: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

The decimalsign setting should affect text but not values in raw .eps.
This seems to lead to failing processing with ghostscript. What do you
think about this? Or should this be reported to ghostscript (then please
reassign).

I'm attaching the resulting .eps. But it can be easily reproduced.

$ gnuplot
> set terminal postscript eps enhanced
> set decimalsign locale
> set output 'test.eps'
> plot '-'
  > 1,0 1,5
  > 2,0 2,5
  > e
> quit

$ gs -q -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dAutoRotatePages=/None -sOutputFile=test.pdf

Regards, Daniel
