:> A better way is to use a replacement mechanism like the one used

:> In fact, automake offers bultin support for that using AM_FUNC_STRTOD.

Ito did not know of libiberty and used strtod of BSD origin.
But I hope libiberty should work on his old Linux and Ito will be
happy if he does not have to apply his patch every time he builds
kaffe. Ito will be looking forward to your patch.
