[ic] Locale PriceDivide stopped working

[Ton Verhagen]

Just changed the mon_decimal_point from , to . for eur_EUR
Result: PriceDivide uses all fractional digits (2.20371) now, which is okay.

It seems that all figures are treated as a currency amount, or 
mon_decimal_point and decimal_point are mixed up somewhere. PriceDivide 
shoudn't be treated as a currency but just as a normal figure imho, shoud 
it? Or am I all over the place today?
