printf error (not completely converted)

I'm encountering an issue in printf.. it works on other servers but not this one (SunOS - Kernel Generic_118558-33)

Code:
root@server # echo $x
2.340
root@server # printf "%.1f" $x
printf: 2.340 not completely converted
2,0root@server #

anyone has an idea? i was expecting an output of "2.3"
