>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
