[Glass] Unusual compiling issue in tODE

[Dale Henrichs]

Jupiter,

I would guess that this is caused by a locale issue ... I'm headed to
dinner now, but I think we've had a couple of issues recently where folks
were using a locale where the decimal points were not $. and GemStone
didn't quite handle things correctly ... what version of GemStone are you
using?
