I would like to mention that most of string functions in the kernel you get
from /usr/include/asm/string.h - coded in assembler. Did you really expected
them not be be inlined? There are subtle differences in headers included in
kernel and user space programs. See what you have in linux/ and asm/ include
subdirectories, compare with the other linux kernel sources.

Unfortunately strtod() is not there, but when you get it coded efficiently,
you may always submit it to Linus for inclusion in 2.3 kernel.
