Implement wrappers around strtod to convert the user argument to a double with sane error checking. Use this to allow --max-time and --connect-timeout to accept decimal values instead of strictly integers. The manpage is updated to make mention of this feature and, additionally, forewarn that the actual timeout of the operation can vary in its precision (particularly as the value increases in its decimal precision).

README.win32
Read the README file first.
Curl has been compiled, built and run on all sorts of Windows and win32
systems. While not being the main develop target, a fair share of curl users
are win32-based.
The unix-style man pages are tricky to read on windows, so therefore are all
those pages converted to HTML as well as pdf, and included in the release
archives.
The main curl.1 man page is also "built-in" in the command line tool. Use a
command line similar to this in order to extract a separate text file:
curl -M >manual.txt
Read the INSTALL file for instructions how to compile curl self.
