#1930: t/op/number.t: one test fails under --optimize on Darwin/PPC
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  jkeenan  |       Owner:        
     Type:  bug      |      Status:  new   
 Priority:  minor    |   Milestone:        
Component:  testing  |     Version:  2.11.0
 Severity:  medium   |    Keywords:        
     Lang:           |       Patch:        
 Platform:           |  
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 Configuring with:
 {{{
 perl Configure.pl --optimize
 }}}
 on Darwin/PPC, I got the following test failure, which I do not get when I
 configure without optimization:
 {{{
 t/op/number.t ..
 1..126
 ...
 not ok 50 - mod_n
 # Have: -0
 # Want: 0
 }}}
 Note: I have rarely configured with `--optimize` on this platform, so I
 don't know whether this test failure has always been there or when it
 appeared.  (I was working on a different ticket where I needed to see what
 difference `--optimize` made in `%PConfig`.)

 Given what some would consider the antiquity of this platform, this is
 hardly a deal-breaker.   Still, a bug is a bug, and it would be worthwhile
 if someone could speculate on why optimization made this bug manifest and
 how it might be fixed.

 Thank you very much.
