Indeed, they found an original new way to get it wrong. Please point out to them that the ptr is supposed to be advanced *past* the input. Not to the last character of the input.
Reported to my SCO contacts. However, I guarantee this won't be fixed in 7.1.4 (the next release), as it just went Gold.
Also, I suspect 7.1.3 and below have the bug, and are prevalent.
And, I just proved it on my 7.1.2 (AKA OpenUNIX 8.0.0) system:
$ cc -O -o test3 test3.c $ ./test3 num=nan errno=0 ptr=8049682, points to N num=inf errno=0 ptr=8049686, points to f $ uname -a OpenUNIX lerlsof 5 8.0.0 i386 x86at Caldera UNIX_SVR5 $
