>Description:
	Assigning return value of strlen() to double fails.
	Because of this bug, awk doesn't work correctly.
	And this leads build failure of libedit.

>How-To-Repeat:
	% cat a.c
	#include	<stdio.h>

	main()
	{
		double	u;

		u = strlen("abc");

		printf("u = %g\n", u);
	}
	% cc a.c
	% ./a.out
	u = 1.4822e-323
	%
