Replace our ancient dtoa/strtod implementation with the gdtoa package, a more recent, generalized set of routines. Among the changes: - Declare strtof() and strtold() in stdlib.h. - Add glue to libc to support these routines for all kinds of ``long double''. - Update printf() to reflect the fact that dtoa works slightly differently now. As soon as I see that nothing has blown up, I will kill src/lib/libc/stdlib/strtod.c. Soon printf() will be able to use the new routines to output long doubles without loss of precision, but numerous bugs in the existing code must be addressed first.

Add a comment describing why it's important for the values in this file to be correct, and how to generate them automatically. Caused much pain and suffering for: peter 2003-05-08 13:50:44 +00:00			`/*`
