limits.h defines {FLT,DBL}_{MAX,MIN} macros, even though float.h is
supposed to do that. Those values are not exactly representable
double/float as the specification mandates and the patched gcc treats
them in extended precision (in violation of C99), which breaks code
(e.g. in vf_fps) like

double f = DBL_MAX;
[...]
if (f == DBL_MAX) { // f has not been changed yet
    [....]
}
---
At Janne's suggestion, changed the detection method to a compile check instead
of hardcoding net/openbsd.

Fixed the description of the cause -- a patched gcc that violates the standard
also collaborates on the breakage.
