load of _l suffixed versions of various standard library functions that use
the global locale, making them take an explicit locale parameter. Also
adds support for per-thread locales. This work was funded by the FreeBSD
Foundation.
Please test any code you have that uses the C standard locale functions!

cause apps that run with unmasked FP exceptions to SIGFPE after a
scanf() or strtod(). The vendor stated that he will not be fixing
this, citing portability concerns.
- Accept the '0x' prefix so strtod("nan(0x...)", NULL) returns the same
thing as gcc's builtin nan("0x...") for such strings.
- Don't return uninitialized memory.
- Finish processing the string up to the closing ')' (provided it's
lexically valid) for compatibility with C99 and *scanf().

removing that file from the vendor branch and unduly rearranging things.

- include extra system headers and add appropriate #defines
- use a spinlock to synchronize parts of gdtoa
- protect exported symbols with leading underscores
