%f wants a float, not a double, you have to typecast the value or use %g

the main problem is that our printf doesn't yet support floats/doubles...

Example code:
void showfloat( )
{
float tempfloat;
char *buf[20];

thats certainly not what you want. you declare a pointer to an array while you want an array...

 char buf[20];

    tempfloat = 9.40;
    sprintf( buf, "%.0f", tempfloat );
    usart1Puts( buf );
}
