The problem is in dlls/msvcrt/math.c, function _fcvt.

Referring to page
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ex8sf9x0(VS.80).aspx
we see the following description of the return string:

"Only digits are stored in the string. The position of the decimal point and
the sign of value can be obtained from dec and sign after the call. The dec
parameter points to an integer value; this integer value gives the position of
the decimal point with respect to the beginning of the string. A zero or
negative integer value indicates that the decimal point lies to the left of the
first digit. The parameter sign points to an integer indicating the sign of
value. The integer is set to 0 if value is positive and is set to a nonzero
number if value is negative."


Currently the function returns the complete string with minus sign and decimal
point.

Furthermore, it is currently using %e to convert instead of %f.

I am happy to have a crack at fixing this - and will review _ecvt and _gcvt
while I am at it.
