Summary says it all...

Some could argue it is a missing feature, not a bug, but 
it would make a life a bit easier for non-english 
developers, especially as this library is ofteh used for 
monetary stuff...

<?php

// first setlocale():
if (
    (FALSE===setlocale("LC_ALL","sl_SI"))&&
    (FALSE===setlocale("LC_ALL","slovenian"))&&
    (FALSE===setlocale("LC_ALL","slovene"))&&
    (FALSE===setlocale("LC_ALL","slovenski"))&&
    (FALSE===setlocale("LC_ALL","sl"))
   )
  echo "SETLOCALE() ERROR!!!<br>\n";

// this line outputs "0.00" instead of "0,80":
echo bcadd("0,3","0,5",2);

?>

locale settings should not affect the way code is parsed 
(it still does in some places of Zend Engine, but that is a different story)
