strtof is not defined anymore in std=c++11


    Hello,

The strtof function is now rejected when selecting the gcc C++11 standard option.
This regression has been introduced in this patch
    http://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2012/msg00425.html

J.Turney patch is fine regarding the C standard side, but when using from C++ :
    $ cat a.cpp
    #include <cstdlib>

    float  f(const char *s, char **endptr) {
      return strtof(s, endptr);
    }

It fails with the message :
    $ g++ -std=c++11 a.cpp
    a.cpp: In function 'float f(const char*, char**)':
    a.cpp:3:30: error: 'strtof' was not declared in this scope

Whereas this function strtof is well included in the cstdlib header file defined in C++11 ISO.

Please advice.

Thanks,
Laurent
