+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The functions
+.BR ecvt_r (),
+.BR fcvt_r (),
+.BR qecvt_r (),
+and
+.BR qfcvt_r ()
+are identical to
+.BR ecvt (3),
+.BR fcvt (3),
+.BR qecvt (3),
+and
+.BR qfcvt (3),
+respectively, except that they do not return their result in a static
+buffer, but instead use the supplied
+.I buf
+of size
+.IR len .
+See
+.BR ecvt (3)
+and
+.BR qecvt (3).
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+These functions return 0 on success, and \-1 otherwise.
+.SH ATTRIBUTES
+For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
