Sorry, my mistake, last patch lost some codes when i transfer codes
from Git to Mercurial.


VOD (video on demand) module which support requesting time range
also need the special function, so i would like to see that nginx-devel
add a function in Core, that would be helpful. Possible patch below.

Core: add ngx_atosp().




This allows to correctly parse "start" and "end" arguments without

null-termination (ticket #475), and also fixes rounding errors observed

with strtod() when using i387 instructions.
