<?php
$a = 0.8;
echo "DEBUG: a = ".$a."<br>";
?>

if environment variable LANG is set to 'german'.

The bug won't appear, if language environment is not set. (Default is English)

The bug is also report with ID #4631 (but only for PHP4)

Hm, I?m not sure how 3.0.16 acts on this, but the german sep is a "," not a "."...

Yes, but the locale settings shouldn't affect the script language syntax. 
PHP is no Visual Bas**.

This is fixed in PHP 4 CVS, not sure about PHP 3.
