[Bug libstdc++/20909] New: incorrect floating point format

[cpp at tempest-sw dot com]

In some locales, certain floating point numbers are printed incorrectly. (I
think the problem lies with numbers with one significant digits, in scientific
format, with a thousands separator and thousands grouping.)

For example:

#include <iostream>
#include <locale>
#include <ostream>

int main()
{
  std::wcout.imbue(std::locale("en_US"));
  std::wcout << 2e10 << '\n';
}

Prints "2e,+10".
