I changed src/nmath/standalone/test.c to read:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#define MATHLIB_STANDALONE 1
#include <Rmath.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int
main()
{
double x;
for (x = 99990; x <= 100009; x++)
printf ("%.14g --> %.14g\n", x, pgamma (1000000.0, x, 1.0, 0, 1));
return 0;
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and have no further local changes.
I get...
src/nmath/standalone> LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. ./test
99990 --> -669773.38974057
99991 --> -669771.08705436

99993 --> -669766.48171194

99999 --> -669752.66592471
100000 --> -669750.36332851
100001 --> -599731.36192347 <--- Look at me jump!
100002 --> -599729.89768519
100003 --> -599728.43344358
100004 --> -599726.96919865
100005 --> -599725.50495039
100006 --> -599724.0406988
100007 --> -599722.57644388
100008 --> -599721.11218564
100009 --> -599719.64792408
i.e., the result changes 70000 orders of magnitude right here. Ugh.
This is affecting some erlang calculations of mine pretty badly.
Judging from comments in pgamma someone else might have gotten hit by this
around R1.8.1.
