Thanks.

But please compile with GCC 2.95.2 (it's more picky) as a native DJGPP 
compilation, and please run the Cygnus test suite ("make" in the 
tests/cygnus directory) after you rebuild the library.  The strto* 
functions took several iterations to get right, using this test suite as 
the testbed.  Since these functions are used by *scanf family, the test 
suite puts them under a very good scrutiny.
