Well, the input doesn't actually match the format, so I'm not totally
excited about this.  You do get sane results from:

regression=# select to_number('-347,58', '999G99');
 to_number 
-----------
    -34758
(1 row)

Should we have it throw an error if the input corresponding to a G
symbol doesn't match the expected group separator?  I'm concerned that
that would break applications that work okay today.

                        regards, tom lane
