Comment (by cheuberg):

 Replying to [comment:16 jdemeyer]:
 > About the doctests: I would actually prefer to just change the doctests
 without tolerance. It's kind of ugly to have to add tolerances everywhere.
 And most tests don't change, so it's not so bad.

 It might well be the case that the tolerances I introduced above might be
 too small when the upgrade to the next arb version or that other tests
 require new tolerances. At the moment, we could easily go back to the
 modified doctests I already reverted once. And switching back to
 tolerances when we realize that we keep changing doctests with every arb
 version would not to be hard, either.

 OTOH: I am not sure whether all machines will return the same error in all
 computations, but that's perhaps something that Frederik could comment on?

 Marc, you suggested using tolerances. Any further comments on this issue?
