Hi,

The get_uint32_measurement/2 call in cpu_sup seems to throw a bad  
match when the locale of the shell that the process is running in does  
not use a decimal point to denote a fraction.

For example, if the result of /usr/bin/uptime is

1:59  up 1 day,  6:07, 5 users, load averages: 0,77 0,94 1,02

then the get_uint32_measurement fails.

This occurs in R12B-1 with uname

Darwin Macintosh-3.local 9.2.2 Darwin Kernel Version 9.2.2: Tue Mar 4  
21:17:34 PST 2008; root:xnu-1228.4.31~1/RELEASE_I386 i386

There was a thread (http://forum.trapexit.org/mailinglists/viewtopic.php?t=4687&sid=89d1b0afdf03311a49b26a6376bef3e3 
) about this a few years ago, I don't know whether this is still an  
issue.

Thx,

Ben
