I'm not convinced that this would be a good thing. calc effectively is a
programming language, and making the syntax of a programming language
dependent on locale settings doesn't sound like a good idea to me (if gcc
started to do that, I'm pretty sure it would get a few grave bugs within
seconds of the upload). And what should calc do with those operators that
become inaccessible because LC_NUMERIC's decimal separator clashes with
them (like ',' in your case)?
