I cannot imagine that including float.h could have any influence on
the results.  Apart of defining some parameters of the floating-point
representation and the macros used by _control87, it doesn't do
anything.  A program that doesn't use _control87 needs float.h only if
it wants to know the likes of the maximum and minimum FP numbers, the
machine epsilon, the maximum representable exponent, etc.
