Mark Dickinson added the comment:

I'm pretty sure that our code was based on something rather more recent than 
2001: it was the most recent version available at the time (around 2008?), and 
it incorporates subsequent fixes from David Gay.

Please don't replace our dtoa.c with a current version: ours has diverged from 
the original, and includes fixes that aren't available upstream.
