I think this is not necessarily an export issue as much as it is a
locale specific representation problem. Are we properly representing
those numbers in gnucash? And, if we are, then probably the simplest
solution is to implement either a per-report option or an application
preference controlling the *display* of commas in reports which will
then directly affect the export output.
