Comment (by zimmerma):

 > I assume you are mostly referring to the changes made by #16858; this
 ticket only removes one digit.

 I refer to changeset {{{e216b6f}}} in comment [comment:27].

 Yes it would be better to only keep the minimum number of digits output by
 all versions of Sage (since the one we use in our book, i.e., 5.9).

 The intent of those doctests is to only to check the examples that were
 **printed** in the book still work in versions of Sage after 5.9. Thus it
 makes no sense to add more digits than those that were actually printed on
 http://sagebook.gforge.inria.fr/. Any doctests with a different intent
 should go elsewhere in my opinion.
