Bug description:  stripslashes is setlocale aware - decimal point conversion

Description:
------------
Stripslashes seems to be locale specific. It changes 
decimal point character when used in enviroment with 
locales set.

I'm not shure is this a feature or a bug but it's 
something unexpected as it's not mensioned in the manual 
as far as I know. And it's easy to criple database input 
with this.

As a locale to observe this behaviour one can set probably 
enything that uses comma rather then dot for decimal 
point.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$float = 0.10;   // $float is now float 0.10

setlocale(LC_ALL,'C');
$r = stripslashes($float);     // $r is now string "0.10"

setlocale(LC_ALL,'pl_PL');
$r = stripslashes($float);     // $r is now string "0,10"


Expected result:
----------------
No change in decimalpoint or explicit note in 
documentation.

Actual result:
--------------
Provided in code example - change of decimal point 
character.
