This version seems to have four or five times more lines of code than the one we currently use. I'd rather that we didn't add the non-standard functions (strtoIQ(), strtopf(), etc.) to libc until they're needed for something. > - Update printf() to properly handle long doubles by using gdtoa(). And scanf() by using strtof() and strtold(). I'll write wcstof() and wcstold() as wrappers around strtof() and strtold() and have them ready to commit along with your import of gdtoa.
