Bug description:function floatval

Description:
------------
Hello,
I found a problem when using function floatval. Problem occurs in five
digit numbers. Processed data is variously evaluates.

Test script:
---------------
$number='0.00001';
$number2='1.00001';

echo floatVal($number);
echo "</ br>";
echo floatVal($number2);

Expected result:
----------------
1.0E-5
1.00001

Why is the first value of 1.0E-5 instead of values 0.00001 ?
