One alternative would be to make the [f] object accept a subset of
symbols that look like floats so that a user can do an explicit
typecast, printing an error in the event a symbol does not convert
cleanly. Would you hypothetically accept a patch that did that?
Incidentally, my eyes might be deceiving me but it seems like
pdfloat_float() is defined twice in x_connective.c(.)
Cheers,
Chris.
