decimal symbol problem in a2ps

Thank you for a wonderful program!

But I found a bug:

Linux: RedHat 7.1
a2ps: 4.13b-13
Printer: HP-4000N 

When the environment variable LANG is set to "en_DK" the ps-output from a2ps
have a wrong decimal symbol, ex. "/bfs 8,005733 def".
It seems that linux sends the output to the printer, but my printer doesn't
react at all. (Well it takes 30 seconds to get to the printer so maybe it
shortly flashes some input ?)

Then when I change LANG to "en" the same output is "/bfs 8.005733 def" and
the printer prints perfectly.

In Denmark (DK) we use "," as decimal symbol.

Thank you for your time
