 * Cygwin has a strtof() which is literally just (float)strtod(), which means
 * we can't avoid the double-rounding problem; but using this wrapper does get
 * us proper over/underflow checks. (Also, if they fix their strtof(), the
 * wrapper doesn't break anything.)
 *
 * Test results on Mingw suggest that it has the same problem, though looking
 * at the code I can't figure out why.
