Is there some reason float.h is missing in /usr/include/ on a standard install of Xcode 4.4.1 (w/ Command Line Tools installed)? As this is part of the C standard (at least 9899:2011) it would seem to be an oversight?

Are you sure that float.h is missing from the installation or just from /usr/include/? The C compiler package may install headers anywhere it wants to. The syntax <float.h> is used for that. Try cc -E in a C file containing just #include <float.h.> to see where it is installed. – lhf Aug 29 '12 at 1:38
