Random, untested guess: One build has strtod_l() and newlocale() in libc
and uses that. The other build uses a hand-written _cairo_strod() that
can definitely not parse "inf".

I'm not quite sure what to make about this. Perhaps it would be best to
always use the fallback instead of the more powerful strtod_l()...?

Cheers,Uli
