Details:
My own GNU/Linux system has been reporting failure of float-format.sh for
months now and I've finally gone to the trouble of tracking down the problem:
"-0" no longer parses as a negative zero on my machine, for whatever reason.
Since there's really no portable way, AFAIK, to make a C implementation
produce a negative zero, I think it's best to just drop the tests that depend
on it.
This patch also makes the float-format.sh error messages easier to read, by
changing the sed command so that error line numbers are easier to match to
the test input.
