yes Mark, I know that the axis is reversed, but I don't get the point
why the if clause is needed: fabs(pt->y) always returns a positive value
or 0 and multiplying 0 with -1 doesn't do any harm. So why not use
sprintf(y, "%.*f", precision, pt->y * -1) and skip the test?

Hi Klaus,
In that case I don't know - the original patch was submitted by Eduin
Carillo so he would be the right person to ask. The only thing I can
think of is that it is supposed to suppress "minus 0" from appearing in
the KML output (as +/- 0 are separate numbers in IEEE-754 floating point
numbers), but even then I'm not 100% convinced by the logic.
ATB,
Mark.
