Anybody using the comand line compilers on 10.4?

When saving the following simple program as /tmp/x.cpp:

  int main()
  {
    double x = 0.5;
    return 0;
  }

and trying to compile it with

$ mwcc -c /tmp/x.cpp

, I get the error message

   Error : invalid floating-point constant
/tmp/x.cpp line 3         double x = 0.5; 

Needless to say, it compiles fine on 10.3.

I'm using CW 9.5, mwcc is version 3.2.6 build 437.

Any ideas?

 I'll see if we can duplicate this in house.

I figured it out: it's a locale thing.  I have LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-1 in
my environment; if I unset LANG, it compiles fine.  Seems like a pretty
bad bug to me; parsing of C code should not be locale-dependent.
