--- Comment #1 from Iain Buclaw <ibuclaw at gdcproject dot org> ---
I'd like to try and avoid removing this and just printing out the (fixed up)
hexadecimal float.

My preference would be for Libiberty to have a fallback like Gnulib, who's
strtod implementation handles incorrect conversions with their own rolled
parse_number routine.

>         a = strtod("0x0A8P6Zv", &endptr);

This would have been re-written as 0x0.A8p6 before passing to strtod, but I
acknowledge what is going on.
