(Hmm I pressed the wrong button and I didn't finish the idea ...)
I think that since this stuff is in the UNIX standard, and even in Windows,
this should be added to FreeBSD too.
That said, of course I can't wait for a decision so I reported the issue to the
z88 author and I'll replace the three ocurrences of gcvt() with snprintf().
cheers,
Pedro.

Hi guys;
I just thought I should mention that this application that I'm porting uses
gcvt() :
http://www.z88.org/
I quick search I did revealed that it is not dead:
http://www.mkssoftware.com/docs/man3/gcvt.3.asp
And a look at the MSDN says that it also exists on MS-Windows.
