Cool, thanks. I hope that proposed resolution gets a slightly more detailed
text. Similar wording in the C standard apparently implies something along
the lines of "`1.e60` is a valid IEEE 754 spelling of INFINITY, and
INFINITY is a representable value" (
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/dr_025.html ) (which as far
as I understand is the interpretation that e.g. musl is using, so their
strtof doesn't set ERANGE on this input.)
