Details:

When using a german locale or using explicit SET DECIMAL=COMMA, any 
numbers with a comma as decimal points like 3,5 are not read as decimal
numbers with the DATA LIST command. Instead an error message is produced. 

This bug was discussed in bug #47139 and also a patch was attached. This patch
had some syntax errors, but the idea fixed this bug. I will attach the
corrected patch.

To see the problem use:


SET DECIMAL=COMMA.
DATA LIST LIST /A *.
BEGIN DATA
1
2
3
3,5
3
4
5
6,5
7
END DATA


LIST /FORMAT=NUMBERED.
