Right, in C it does mean that (because thousands_sep is a multibyte string, and
so the value is really ""). The problem is that in C++ a NUL thousands_sep is a
perfectly valid single-byte character, i.e., '\0'. IMO, the way to fix it is by
somehow distinguishing a NUL thousands_sep that comes from the system locale
(e.g., via localeconv()) and a NUL thousands_sep intentionally supplied by the
user (read "test suite writer" ;-) because they want to see it on output.
