I can't access that package (missing permissions), but I can reproduce
the results: On CentOS 7 and Alpine Linux, I too see

strtof("-nan") -> nan
c_strtof("-nan") -> nan
strtod("-nan") -> nan
c_strtod("-nan") -> nan
strtold("-nan") -> nan
c_strtold("-nan") -> nan

while the *printf routines apparently work correctly.

I'll work on a strtof, strtod, strtold override...
