Aurelien,

I don't know. Could you give it a try and see what happens? :-)

Petr,

Several standards say that there should be a thin space between
the thousand separator, but the glibc locales have been using an
ASCII space <U0020> instead of the thin space <U2009>.

Do you know of any reason for this?

Cheers,
Carlos.
