Python 2.1 test_locale fails

I'm building Python 2.1 on Solaris 2.6.  When I 'make test', the
test_locale module is the only one that fails:

    test test_locale failed -- Writing: "'%f' % 1024 == '1024.000000' !=
'1,024.000000'", expected: ''
    ...
    The actual stdout doesn't match the expected stdout.
    This much did match (between asterisk lines):

**********************************************************************
    test_locale

**********************************************************************
    Then ...
    We expected (repr): ''
    But instead we got: "'%f' % 1024 == '1024.000000' != '1,024.000000'"

Anyone know what this means and how I can fix it?  Thanks.
