strtoul() and strtoull() now count how many digits were converted.
If that number is zero, then the conversion is considered to have
failed: 0 is returned, errno is set to ERANGE and the 'ptr' parameter
reference is initialized with a pointer to the string to be converted.
This has two consequences:
1) A floating point number that has no digits in the significand
is no longer converted to zero. For example ".e10" can no longer
result in a successful conversion.
2) You can detect if a conversion is successful by comparing pointers
after the conversion function has returned:
char * str;
char * ptr;
long n;
n = strtol(str,&ptr,10);
if(n == 0 && str == ptr)
printf("conversion has failed");

code which initialized them.
- Reading/changing the errno variable is no longer done directly, but
involves accessor functions.
- References to the HUGE_VAL quantity now involve an accessor function, too.
- Changed the manner in which the __huge_val constant is initialized by
the __math_init() function.
