[PATCH 3/4] src/tool_paramhlp: try harder to catch negatives

From: Dave Reisner <d_at_falconindy.com>
Date: Mon, 6 May 2013 14:19:50 -0400

strto* functions happily chomp off leading whitespace, so simply
checking for str[0] can lead to false negatives. Do the full parse and
check the out value instead.
