            Bug ID: 30937
           Summary: permit multiple decimal characters, and digit grouping
                    characters for parsing
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.40
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: locale
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: soloturn at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

as english gets a global language it gets more difficult to parse numbers. at
least the following characters can be seen for digit grouping:
apostrophe (single quote), right single quote u-2019, arabic thousands
separator u-066c, thin space u-2009.

at least the following can be seen as decimal character: dot, comma, arabic
comma u-066b. 

would be nice if parsing numbers, atoi, atof, permit these additional
characters. maybe even in a configuraable list.
