c-strtod.c patch for non-glibc mixed-locale encodings

[Paul Eggert]

I installed this obvious little patch in both gnulib and coreutils:

2004-09-08  Paul Eggert  <address@hidden>

        * c-strtod.c (C_STRTOD) [!defined LC_ALL_MASK]: Set LC_ALL to "C",
        not just LC_NUMERIC, to avoid the unlikely possibility of mixed
        locales screwing things up.  This removes an inconsistency with
        the LC_ALL_MASK case.
