You'd have to ask Derick. He's the one who added it. :) Note that zend_string_to_double() is not actually used anywhere.

Hi Andrei,

Thanks for your reply. Yeah, obviously it'll still be slower than with an already-binary string. :-) But I figured it's better than before, until
something better comes along...

Unless there were other plans to rewrite it, is there a way to easily (for
me! :-)) have it do all the conversion?  I've been thinking about the
different string-to-number functions (will send a separate e-mail)... Is
there a reason the regular zend_strtod() code is so complicated?
zend_string_to_double(), for example, is really simple (and works the same I
assume, except for not handling negatives or leading whitespace).  Can
zend_u_strtod() be implemented with the same methods zend_string_to_double()
uses?
