- You also need strtod(), which is not in the libc.a that comes with the
- 386BSD distribution. A quick fix is to hack the strtod.c file that
- is part of GNU libc. I haven't spent a lot of time on it, but I'm
- in the process of adding it to my libc.a. I haven't noticed any
- references to this missing function before.
-
- The man page for strtod() mentions that it is not implemented. Maybe
- we'll see it in the next release of 386BSD?
