[Bug libgcj/15099] New: JvCreateJavaVM(NULL) make string to float conversion fail

The program:

int main()
{
    string test1 = "3.859155991718317e-06";


    cout << test1
         << " - "
         << test1.c_str()
         << " - "
         << std::atof(test1.c_str()) << endl;
    JvCreateJavaVM(__null);
    cout << test1
         << " - "
         << test1.c_str()
         << " - "
         << std::atof(test1.c_str()) << endl;
    JvDetachCurrentThread();

    cout << test1
         << " - "
         << test1.c_str()
         << " - "
         << std::atof(test1.c_str()) << endl;


  return (0);
}

gives as an output:

3.859155991718317e-06 - 3.859155991718317e-06 - 3.85916e-06
3.859155991718317e-06 - 3.859155991718317e-06 - 3
3.859155991718317e-06 - 3.859155991718317e-06 - 3

Clearly once the VM is created no string to float conversion works.

Can you provide the __non__ preprocessed source?  Also can you try 3.4.0 while you are at it?

I cannot use the 3.4.0 version for now because I'm not "able" to install it in a
proper way (I'm not admin and installing a new compiler in a local already led
to problem last time we've done it).

I cannot reproduce it on i686-pc-linux-gnu running Redhat 7.3, running glibc 2.2.5 on 3.4.0, 3.3.3 or 
3.5.0, so this is problem in your glibc because atof should be using the C locale always (read the C 
standard). There is no way around it, sorry except for updating your version of glibc.
