This is a distinction between the U.S. and U.S. (Computer) regions in the 
Formats tab of the Language & Text pane of System Preferences.

This affects the -doubleClickAtIndex: and -nextWordFromIndex:forward: methods 
of NSAttributedString (and its subclass NSTextStorage).  It may be possible to 
set up your text view to use a custom subclass of NSTextStorage that overrides 
the behavior of those methods.
