According to C99:
"The functions atof, atoi, atol, and atoll need not
affect the value of the integer expression errno on an
error. If the value of the result cannot be represented,
the behavior is undefined."
removing it from our source tree in order to have one version
of strtod() for all arches. netbsd_strtod.c still left in source
tree until alpha folks make sure that our native strtod() works
as well as NetBSD's one.

The definition of character class digit requires that only ten characters
-the ones defining digits- can be specified; alternate digits (for
example, Hindi or Kanji) cannot be specified here. However, the encoding
may vary if an implementation supports more than one encoding.
The definition of character class xdigit requires that the characters
included in character class digit are included here also and allows for
different symbols for the hexadecimal digits 10 through 15.
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.
