OK, I give up...  Either I've gone blind, or the implementation of
atof() under SCO Unix V/386 3.2.0's development system is broken!

Test program:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
    printf("%lf\n", atof("1"));
    exit(0);
}

Compile it by:

% cc -o test test.c -lm

And then run it:

% ./test
0.000000

Does anyone have a working atof() replacement I can have a copy of?
