test557: set a known good numeric locale

Windows does not allow setting the locale with environment variables (as
the test attempted to do), so the test failed when run with a user
locale that has a comma as radixchar. Changed the test to call
setlocale() explicitly to ensure that a known working locale is set even
on Windows.
