Sorry for delayed response.  I'm afraid I see no change in behaviour, using
this build
https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+log/4118610df8a78b00e5369bad1d9ce21cf1fbafeb

I'll attach a screenshot of my regional settings, where you can see (if you
look very closely :-) that the decimal separator is a period, not a comma.

Using the demo file I attached here on 2019-12-02, I get the same result, which
is that calculations fail for numbers with a period as the decimal separator.

Something that just occurred to me is this: for my locale, ZA, the _default_
decimal separator is a comma.  I changed that to a period (and changed the
thousands grouping character from period to comma).

If LO is using the default locale settings instead of the getting the actual
ones from the OS, this would explain my results.
