My only complaint is all those (repeated!) calls to numpunct virtuals 
in each format operation.  Those details should be cached on the first 
format operation, and re-used thereafter until the next imbue call.  
There used to be infrastructure for such caching; did it get stripped
out?

There's no reason why C++ floating-point output should be ten thousand
times slower than printf.
