Scroll down in your manpage to the "CONFORMS TO" section. You'll see that strtof was only introduced in C99. This means that stdlib.h tests some macro to determine whether it's in C99 mode before declaring the prototype for strtof.

That's why I'm more interested in finding out how things can be traced, rather than worrying about this specific mis-match between my expectations and the system's behavior.
