I think #379329 and #379463 are the same issue: LC_NUMERIC is only effective after a POSIX::setlocale() call. Merging. This was partly documented with http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commit/2095dafae09cfface71d4202b3188926ea0ccc1c which is in Lenny. However, I see at least the section 'The use locale pragma' in early parts of perllocale.pod still claims that 'use locale' is enough. This contradicts the fixed LC_NUMERIC section in the same document and the locale(3perl) manual page. I'll bring it up with upstream again, but I doubt the behaviour will be changed as it's far less disrupting to just fix the documentation.
