Actually, it looks like the problem might be much simpler:
fast_float.h fails to include <stdint.h>
Libstdc++ provides its own <stdint.h> header which should solve the
__STDC_LIMITS_MACROS issue with non-conforming C libraries.
I'll look into it ...

Search for that macro in the libstdc++ source to see how other targets handle non-conforming libc headers.
