the netbsd_strtod.c file we have does not. More still should be done
here, but this works happily on my Alpha. I have not (yet?) changed
the Makefile.inc to use this.
If zero bytes are allocated, return pointer to the middle of page-zero
(which is protected) so that the program will crash if it dereferences
this illgotten pointer.

is interrupted by saving the pid.
The old code would assign the return value to pid which would trash
it, to fix the problem save a copy of the pid to be used as the
paramter to wait4().

Note our implementation is not thread nor async-cancel safe.
Explicitely note atof() does not check nor report errors.
Note that strtod() should be used instead.
Also add C99 conformity status plus clarification that C99 leaves the
flushing of unwritten data, closure of open streams, and removal of
temporary files to the implementation.
This is a first cut, but enough to help people interested in using it
further than before.
More text coming to illustrate use and provide more details.
Based on standards' text.
my last version of this work due to HDD crash, but this version cleanly
passed all POSIX and SuSv2 tests. I am working on testing scripts which
should test this implementation against all locales and surely more fixes
will come soon.

'locale not used' statement from comments and BUGS section of manpage.
strtol(): fix non-portable 'cutoff' calculation using the same method as
in strtoll().
Cleanup 'cutoff' calculation, remove unneded casts. Misc. cleanup to
make all functions looks the same.
Implement EINVAL reaction per POSIX, document it in manpage, corresponding
POSIX example quotes here:
------------------------------------------------
If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no
conversion is performed; the value of str is stored in the object pointed
to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null pointer.
If no conversion could be performed, 0 shall be returned and errno may be
set to [EINVAL].
[EINVAL] The value of base is not supported.
Since 0, {LONG_MIN} or {LLONG_MIN}, and {LONG_MAX} or {LLONG_MAX} are
returned on error and are also valid returns on success, an application
wishing to check for error situations should set errno to 0, then call
strtol( ) or strtoll ( ), then check errno.

Backout previous revision. We should not expand plain text xrefs if
they appear in the literal text, e.g. in the error or warning message
of the library function. (Submitted by: bde)
Moved "out of memory" from warning to errors section.
