Hi folks,

I have noticed some complaining about the lack of thousands separators
on the ticks, especially on the vertical axis. Certainly, I find it a
pain.

The following patch might fix the problem. I don't currently have a
capture that I can check this with. Perhaps tomorrow I will remember
to bring one how that shows more than three digits ...

Nope. I was wrong. This does it. Can someone commit it? Do I have to
create a bug?:

Bugs are always better, and I see you opened bug 7389 for this.

But: a quick search for "printf apostrophe portable" brought me here:

http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t442370-portability-issues-with-flag-in-printf.html

which indicates that using the apostrophe isn't really portable.

Folllow-ups to the bug.
