It's assigned to me for now... I'll have a look at it this week. Does somebody remember why we need to mangle the locale anyway by resetting LC_NUMERIC to "C"?
Good to hear the problem is then going to be addressed.
According to the annotation, the change (1.320) was made by Ilia with the
following comment:
This patch fixes handling of floats on locales where decimal point is
not a '.'. Problem is best demonstrated by bug #17079.

I suppose the root of the problem is that the engine relies on strtod() that is affected by the locale settings. IIRC, there are some threads regarding this... I can't name one though.
