XSL and internationalisation

I am attempting some XSLT processing on a machine with German regional 
settings.  The attached test case illustrates the problem.  German has 
commas as decimal separators.  Excel and other applications respect comma as 
the decimal separator.

xml data-------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
     <data>
      <item>103,3</item>
      <item>104,4</item>
</data>

xsl script---------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    <xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
  <xsl:output encoding="utf-8" />
      <xsl:template match="/">
      <xsl:value-of select="sum(data/item)" />
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

msxsl outputs NaN for the above.

It behaves correctly outputting 207.7 when I change the decimal separators 
to '.'.

Do I need to stipulate the decimal separator?

Please help if you can?

Regards
Mike May
