I have been trying to remove this from the code.  For some reason I can't
compile the system (something about wrong number of args to gettimeofday
in backend/tcop/postgres.c) but in the meantime, have you tried the
USE_LOCALE define?  That should at least switch it to your local money
indicator.

Not that I can think of but I'm not sure where you change that.
