Subject: OLEAUT32: Single|Double->BSTR conversion must always
use locale
To: wine-patches at winehq.org

Yet another patch for a problem in MP3GainGUI.exe: This VB
program saves its GUI state (including the column widths of a
Listview control) in the registry, and restores it on startup.
All fine, except that in a locale other than en_US, the column
widths (of type Single) are converted to strings using the US
locale, and are later restored with the current locale (in my
case, es_EC). For example, a value such as 123.456 (one hundred
and twenty-three with four hundred and fifty-six thousandths) is
converted to the string "123.456", and is then parsed
according
to the rules for the current locale. For es_EC, the string
"123.456" reads "one hundred and twenty-three thousand four
hundred and fifty-six", and the columns get set to a
ridiculously large width. Native oleaut32 converts to
"123,456"
even under Wine with no special flags, so this patch changes the
real->bstr conversion to do the same. I know this patch breaks a
couple of tests for vartype (because "1" gets converted to
"1.00" and such), so I will investigate the issue and possibly
send a more correct patch. In the meantime, comments are welcome.

Changelog:
* Force Single|Double conversion to BSTR to always use current
locale
