 *
 * This function is typically used when reading configuration

 * locale-sensitive system strtod() function.
 *
 * To convert from a #gdouble to a string in a locale-insensitive
 * way, use g_ascii_dtostr().
 *
 * If the correct value would cause overflow, plus or minus %HUGE_VAL
 * is returned (according to the sign of the value), and %ERANGE is
 * stored in %errno. If the correct value would cause underflow,
 * zero is returned and %ERANGE is stored in %errno.
