 * Name: lib_checkbase
 *
 * Description:
 *   This is part of the strol() family implementation.  This function checks
 *   the initial part of a string to see if it can determine the numeric
 *   base that is represented.
 *
 * Assumptions:
 *   *ptr points to the first, non-whitespace character in the string.
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   - if base is valid, the actual base to use, and pptr is updated to point
 *     at the first digit.
 *   - if base is invalid (<2 or >36), return -1.
 *
