 disabled.
 
+LIBC_COPT_FLOAT_TO_STR_NO_SPECIALIZE_LD
+---------------------------------------
+This flag disables the separate long double conversion implementation. It is
+not based on the Ryu algorithm, instead generating the digits by
+multiplying/dividing the written-out number by 10^9 to get blocks. It's
+significantly faster than INT_CALC, only about 10x slower than MEGA_TABLE,
+and is small in binary size. Its downside is that it always calculates all
+of the digits above the decimal point, making it slightly ineffecient for %e
+calls with large exponents. This is the default. If this flag is not set, no 
+other flags will change the long double behavior.

Can you rewrite without the double negation?
