FreeBSD doesn't have an xlocale.h, and ./configure detects this, so
WITH_C_LOCALE doesn't get defined (stdsoap2.h:530):

/* if we have xlocale.h we use it to avoid decimal point conversion issues */
#ifdef HAVE_XLOCALE_H
# ifndef WITH_C_LOCALE
#  define WITH_C_LOCALE
# endif
#endif

stdsoap2.c:8569

#ifdef WITH_C_LOCALE
  soap->c_locale = newlocale(LC_ALL_MASK, "C", NULL);
#else
  soap->c_locale = NULL;
#endif


OSX has an xlocale.h with LC_ALL_MASK defined, so both succeed (see
below) either with or without the second patch.


A separate issue is this:

      # Native build to get tools wsdl2h and soapcpp2
      cd '$(1)' && ./configure \
 -        --enable-openssl
 +        --enable-gnutls

Would mean we have to build a native gnutls. The --enable-openssl is
unrecognised anyway, and just doing a plain ./configure detects
openssl if it's present - tough I'm not sure why it would be necessary
in this case.

Cheers,
