P.S.  Why isn't there a strtoi() or strtou() ?  I know, of course, that
there is atoi(), but that doesn't have the error checking capability that
the strto* functions have.

I don't know, but I'd /guess/ that, because the strto*l() functions return
a value that can easily be range-checked and (possibly) truncated to fit in
an int, the ISO committee didn't see any reason add another set of specialized
functions.
