[Boost-users] [lexical_cast] locale dependent result?

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.

Alex
