It is definitely not a font problem as the actual character code (in unicode and
other encodings) is different depending on the locale.

Quote:
        Note: any of the characters U+002C, U+002E, U+060C, U+066B, or U+066C (and 
possibly others) 
        can be used as numeric separator characters, depending on the locale and user 
customizations.

Hence, the Unicode name is irrelevant.
