QLocale::toString() is an overloaded method. It has definitions for both C float 
and C double values. If it is true that PySide is picking the C float overload, 
then I have to think that that is a bug. Python float objects are internally C 
doubles. It should not be implicitly downcast to a C float when the C double 
override is available.
