note that the output of the larger floating point value works
correctly on my system with da_DK.

however, one important point here is that C++ iostreams *at this time*
does not obey i18n rules, at least not in the way that ardour uses
them. this is both good and bad.

i am continuing to try to get to the bottom of the i18n-related
problems.
