 >Description:
 
 I've been using the attached patch locally to enable the "thousands
 separator" for the Greek locale (el_GR.ISO8859-7).  The change was
 relatively simple to come up with and test after David Schultz
 explained the format of the file to me.
 
 >How-To-Repeat:
 
         Before patching your locale definitions you cannot see any
         thousands separator with the default numericdef file. Only the
         fractional part is separated with a comma:
 
         # env -i LANG=el_GR LC_ALL=el_GR.ISO8859-7 \
           printf "%'.2f\n" 1234567890
         1234567890,00
 
         After applying the attached patch the thousands separator is
         correctly printed as a dot (`.') character by printf(1):
 
         # env -i LANG=el_GR LC_ALL=el_GR.ISO8859-7 \
           printf "%'.2f\n" 1234567890
         1.234.567.890,00
