Description:
------------
When a string starting with number (eg. "22.23abc") is given as input to floatval() function, no output is generated with PHP6 unicode ON whereas it outputs correct result with php5 and php6 when unicode is OFF. According to documentation, this type of string is acceptable by the function. Hence there should be output with PHP6 with both modes (unicode ON and OFF).

Reproduce code:
---------------
--TEST--

--FILE--
<?php
$string = "22.34abcd";
var_dump( floatval($string) );
?>
--EXPECT--

Expected result:
----------------
Notice: A non well formed numeric value encountered in %s on line %d
float(22.34)

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: floatval() expects parameter 1 to be double, Unicode string given in %s on line %d
NULL
