Maxima uses CL FORMAT function wrongly], resulting in outputting wrong
number of digits for floats (one extra), and
contradicting its own manual on fpprintprec. In particular it outputs too
many digits on ix86 and ix86_64, which got in Sage's doctests. As a
result, doctests fail on ARM.
The fix is to replace the extra digit in doctests by dot.
