I am just learning to use locale support myself, but i have noticed that 
gtk_set_locale seems to affect the decimal separator in floating point 
output as well, so any fprintf(file,"%f\n",somevalue) may end up with
a comma instead of a decimal point in some locales. Much to my surprise, 
localized message files work without calling gtk_set_locale and setlocale.

Hope this helps,
