strtod_l is not POSIX.  I only implemented the set of functions required
by POSIX-1.2008, no Linux and no FreeBSD extensions (the latter being a
can of worms).  If scribus requires strtod_l as soon as other *_l
functions are implemented, it's not POSIX-compliant.

Having said that, we can certainly add Linux/FreeBSD extensions over
time but for the 2.6.0 release I'd like to start with the set of
POSIX-mandated functions first.
