Subject: [boost] [lexical_cast] locale dependent result? (was: [lexical_cast] locale dependent result?)

No response on the boost.user list so I'm trying here in case the devs
know:
Is the result of lexical_cast<std::string> locale-dependent? One of my
contributors has submitted a fix for a problem he says is caused by
lexical_cast adding commas to a port number, e.g.: 65535 becomes "65,535".
I'm unable to reproduce this but it may be something specific to his
locale.
If this is the case, what would be the correct way to get a canonical,
locale-independent string from an integer?
Thanks.
