Is this a problem exclusive to tkinter? I ran the following code, and it appears to be an issue with the builtin 'float' method:

>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_NUMERIC, 'de_DE.utf8')
'de_DE.utf8'
>>> float("1,2")
ValueError: could not convert string to float: '1,2'

I have somehow managed to corrupt my locales so I would appreciate if you could try on your machine as well (is it just me?!).
