floating-point support, remove default definition of FLOATING_POINT
from the source, and change the compile-time option to
NO_FLOATING_POINT.
- Remove the HEXFLOAT option. It saves an insignificant amount of
space (<0.1% of the size of libc on i386) and complicates vfprintf()
and checkfmt().
after their change from an array of char to an array of enum.
This fixes problems that occurred when using positional arguments in
format strings, particularly with more than STATIC_ARG_TBL_SIZE (8)
of them.

these are not fully implemented and ifdef'd out, the bugs have
never manifested themselves. Specifically:
- Fix a memory leak in the case where %a follows another
floating-point format.
- Make the %a/%A code behave like %e/%E with respect to
precision.
- It is no longer valid to assume that '-' and '0x' are
mutually exclusive.
- Address other minor issues.
%f and sufficiently short %g specifiers where the precision was
explicitly zero, no '#' flag was specified, and the floating point
argument was > 0 and <= 0.5. While at it, add some comments to better
explain the relevant bits of code.

- Fix %f conversions where the number of significant digits is < expt.
This would be a one-line change were it not for thousands separators.
Noticed by tjr.
- Remove some unnecessary code in the parsing of precision specifiers.
- We used to round long double arguments to double. Now we print
them properly.
- Bugs involving '%F', corner cases of '#' and 'g' format
specifiers, and the '.*' precision specifier have been
fixed.
- Added support for the "'" specifier to print thousands' grouping
characters in a locale-dependent manner.
- Implement the __vfprintf() side of hexadecimal floating point
support. All that is still needed is a routine to convert the
mantissa to hex digits one nibble at a time in the style of ultoa().

- __vfprintf()'s 'buf' has never been used for floating point, so
don't define it in terms of (incorrect) constants describing
floating point numbers. The actual size needed depends on
sizeof(uintmax_t) and locale details, so I slightly overestimated.
- We don't need a 308-character buffer to store the string "308".
With long doubles and %a we need more than three characters, though.
dtoa() is buggy. The bug would cause incorrect output to be
generated when format strings such as '%5.0f' were used with
nonzero numbers whose magnitude is less than 1.

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.

and wide characters. These were already documented in the manual page,
with an entry mentioning that they were not implemented yet. The XSI
%S and %C synoyms have not been added.
In original version grouping was hardcoded. It assumed that thousands
separator should be inserted to separate each 3 numbers. I.e. grouping
string "\003" was assumed for all cases. In correct case (per POSIX)
vfprintf should respect locale defined non-monetary (LC_NUMERIC
category) grouping sequence.
Also simplify thousands_sep handling.
- New length modifiers: hh, j, t, z.
- New flag: '. Note that %'f is not yet implemented.
- Use "inf"/"nan" for efg formats, "INF"/"NAN" for EFG formats.
- Implemented %q in terms of %ll; if "quad_t" is not "long long"
%q will break.
Still to do:
- %C, %S, %lc, %ls (wide character support)
- %'f (thousands in integer portion of %f)
- %a/%A (exact hex representation of floating-point numbers)

adding (weak definitions to) stubs for some of the pthread
functions. If the threads library is linked in, the real
pthread functions will pulled in.
Use the following convention for system calls wrapped by the
threads library:
__sys_foo - actual system call
_foo - weak definition to __sys_foo
foo - weak definition to __sys_foo
Change all libc uses of system calls wrapped by the threads
library from foo to _foo. In order to define the prototypes
for _foo(), we introduce namespace.h and un-namespace.h
(suggested by bde). All files that need to reference these
system calls, should include namespace.h before any standard
includes, then include un-namespace.h after the standard
includes and before any local includes. <db.h> is an exception
and shouldn't be included in between namespace.h and
un-namespace.h namespace.h will define foo to _foo, and
un-namespace.h will undefine foo.
Try to eliminate some of the recursive calls to MT-safe
functions in libc/stdio in preparation for adding a mutex
to FILE. We have recursive mutexes, but would like to avoid
using them if possible.
Remove uneeded includes of <errno.h> from a few files.
Add $FreeBSD$ to a few files in order to pass commitprep.
