----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
 Currently SHP is using sprintf() and atof() in order to write/read
 decimals into/from a DBF file. The problem is these functions are locale
 dependent and the decimal returned from sprintf() may contain ',' instead
 of '.' and atof() will fail to convert a string containing '.' instead of
 ','.

 Note that according to DBF specification the '.' separator is the only
 valid separator.
