RE: question on wrong result for small numbers from strtod(), strtof()


So I fixed one case and broke some others.  I'll think about it some
more, but I probably won't get to it for a few days.
 
It is possible for you to use your double-is-64-bits option on a
permanent basis?  (The strtod code was originally written assuming
64-bit double.  Tracking this down might be very difficult.)

I checked twice that the patch was correctly applied, I rebuild newlib

run the test

This is not the correct patch, now I have more wrong values [tests
4,5,12,13,14,18,19 and 20]
