Thanks.

I've committed the changes to strtod, strtold with one change: the variables
are unsigned, so I used 'ULL' instead of 'LL'.

I don't like the -fno-strict-aliasing change. If we commit it now, it may not
get removed when we do a release. I'd much prefer that the two places that
suffer from the aliasing warning ("type punning" IIRC) are fixed. I don't
think it will be that hard. (See the gcc info docs about type punning and how
we can use a union.)

Bye, Rich =]
