Currently only the d.dddddd d.ddddd format is supported so that is what

However, we already have a function on the GUI code that decodes the other
coordinate formats. We just do not use that function for imported dives,
only for coordinates typed from the GUI. This patch only prepares us so we
can switch to the better coordinate decoding function in C side (passing
the input coordinates properly to the C code. So "my value" is not
supposed to work yet. I am just not familiar how to call C++ code from C
so the switching to the proper decoding function is still pending and will
happen eventually (most likely after 4.3 release).

Would it not be feasible to rewrite the parser in C and then call the C
parser from C++ when keyboard-entered required?
What would be the advantage of having it written in C?
C++ (actually, Qt) gives us very powerful tools for parsing based on
regular expressions - why would we want to give that up?

Just Ferguson's ignorance. The normal flow of processing here is from C
-> C++.
That was the only reason.
