SVN commit 902623 by asimha:

The code in the Location Dialog was using QString::toDouble() to
convert the text in the time zone box into an integer. This did not
work with localization settings that use anything other than '.' for a
decimal point.

The patch fixes this by converting the localized version of the
decimal point to '.' and then calling toDouble() on the string. [As
done in dms::setFromString()]
