A decimal number has the form <number> <decimal-point> <number>. The <decimal-point> character is locale-dependent (e.g. it is . in English and , in German).
The first number is read as a cardinal number. The <decimal-point> character should be looked up in the language dictionary (e.g. "point" in English) -- it should use the _point special entry. The second number is read left-to-right as individual digits.
The parse_number method in tts/word_stream.cpp should take a parsing mode (cardinal_ordinal, digits, etc.). This allows it to support special numbers such as years.
