This is a bug in Tk. It uses locale-agnostic Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj() in most places, but in some places (especially in canvas) it uses locale-dependent strtod(). And that is even worse, strtod() is used even for parsing comma-delimited floats (@-indices).

We can't fix it from Python side (except perhaps switching to C locale for every Tcl/Tk operation). But in desires a warning in the documentation.
