GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 138106
The "Error" message shouldn't have thousand separation.

To repeat: * Start GNOME 2.5 gcalctool and turn on "Show Thousands Separator". * View Scientific mode and enter "12345" * Click on the x! (factorial) button. The display will show: "Er,ror".

Changes applied to CVS HEAD. The version number in configure.in has been bumped to 4.4.3.
The problem is fixed in Scientific mode, but it still exists in Basic/Financial mode. Verified that the problem exists. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Launch Calculator and set it in basic mode. 2. Select View->Show Thousands Separator 3. Click 'Clr'. 4. Click '1/x' The message 'Error' is displayed as 'Err,or'. Please reopen.

Well, the first patch is part of the solution, but v->error needs to be set non-zero for "Error" to be correctly displayed. The second patch provides this. Changes applied to CVS HEAD. Version number in configure.in bumped to 4.4.11
