Ignoring would be IMHO much better, because the patch is clearly broken.
It e.g. breaks tst-sscanf.c:
Double sscanf test 0 failed (-1e+19 instead of -10)

That is in essence:
sscanf ("-.10000E+020.20000E+02", "%11lf%11lf", &d, &e);
and the broken patch eats the dot as if it did not occupy any width.

And without a testcase it is hard to see what actually was broken
previously (if anything).
