src/lisp.h:#define DEFAULT_REHASH_SIZE 1.5

Apparently this code in fns.c, Fmake_hash_table somehow turns it into 1,5.


  /* Look for `:rehash-size SIZE'.  */
  i = get_key_arg (QCrehash_size, nargs, args, used);
  rehash_size = i < 0 ? make_float (DEFAULT_REHASH_SIZE) : args[i];
  if (!NUMBERP (rehash_size)
      || (INTEGERP (rehash_size) && XINT (rehash_size) <= 0)
      || XFLOATINT (rehash_size) <= 1.0)
    signal_error ("Invalid hash table rehash size", rehash_size);

Correction, I meant to say . is not a decimal point in my locale.  , is.

Something is definitly wrong with locale handling.  I have not seen this 
before, but this is the first time I compiled for Gnustep.  It might be some 
setting that doesn't get done in the Gnustep case.  fixup_locale in emacs.c 
comes to mind.
