This is easy to fix by checking (s==end), or by setting errno=0 before calling strto* functions, and checking (errno!=0) afterwards (see the recently-updated manpage example). Given enough time, I will eventually provide a patch for this, but I don't know that I'll get to it anytime soon.. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
