Hello David

I'm copying this the the developer list, and I think it would help if 
you were to subscribe to that list, so that problems are given the 
widest airing.

Your problem has very recently cropped up for another user and I am in 
the process of backporting fixes from git to 4.6.2 stable.

I've confirmed that your file imports incorrectly on 4.6.2, when used 
with a non-UK locale.  It imports correctly with the UK locale.  It also 
imports correctly on my current 4.6.2-ish system, and on git.  There is 
likely to be a delay before an updated 4.6.2+ gets to the distros, so 
git is your best path.

Unfortunately, I'm clueless on Windows, but Cristian Onet, one of the 
lead developers may be able to help, although his time is limited at the 
moment.  Other users may well be able to give some pointers, too.  I 
must say though that, to me, it wold seem to be much quicker to install 
a linux system than to compile KDE.  However, that's your choice.  It 
would be good to have another developer around.
