Using the sent benchtest for strtod I got these outputs in a POWER7 3.3GHz ('baseline'
the default for C implemention and 'optimized' using the new MPN ones). As you can see
the gain is where the multiprecision routines are used more extensivelly (input
1e308, 100000000e300, 1e-307, 0.000001e-301, etc.).
