[issue1222] locale.format bug if thousand separator is space (french separator as example)

[Antoine Pitrou]

Ok, I manage to reproduce it on an Ubuntu box with both 2.5.2a0 and SVN
trunk.
IMO it's a bug since the expected behaviour would be to enforce the
locale settings for number formatting. That's the whole purpose of
locale.format() after all. (no to mention the discrepancy between %.2f
and %9.2f)
