Comment (by dimpase):

 Replying to [comment:26 pbruin]:
 > I redid a few tests after upgrading to Maxima 5.33.0 (#13973), and
 nothing really changed, except the change from `.123...` to `0.123...` is
 also done (upstream, differently than in
 [attachment:maxfpprintprec.patch]) by this upgrade.  May I propose that we
 just apply the changes from [attachment:special_functions_precision.patch]
 to solve the precision problems in this ticket?

 I wonder about the `# For ARM: rel tol 2e-15` tag.
 How does it work? Or is this just a comment?

 > I'm happy with the other changes you made, even though they don't really
 seem to be related to ARM, Maxima or precision.  Two trivial remarks:
 > - The message `Doctesting files changed since the last git commit`
 doesn't seem to have a full stop at the end when I run `sage -t --new`.
 > - Does the `show_default()` doctest in `graphics.py` really take a long
 time?

 I did timings of tests on ARM and added `#long time` to these above
 certain thresholds.

 It's not 100% clear what changes you propose. Can you do a reviewer's git
 branch (or a patch)?
