This is part of the 3.10 to 3.11 update. Danny Smith did the change to 3.11 on September 1st, 2006. I don't know why it was done.. I'm just porting it.
The cephes string-to-float conversion functions were replaced with faster and more flexible versions from Davod Gay's gdtoa package. As part of that, strtof and wcstof became real functions, not just truncations of the double versions.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
