Mark Dickinson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Adding -mieee didn't fix the math and cmath problems. Should I revert the change in r62499, or leave it in? It seems to me that having -mieee is a good thing on the whole. The main reason to not want IEEE 754 conformance would be speed.
It looks like the math and cmath failures are due to libm behaviour; either (1) libm is making no attempt to be IEEE compliant, or (2) it's setting errno in places that it shouldn't, or (3) it's trying to be IEEE compliant but is buggy. I'm not sure how to proceed. Would it be okay to check in some temporary autoconf tests to help identify the source of the failures, and remove them later? _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1496032> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
