>From Alexey A. Illarionov:
Accidentally found a bug in specfun/coulomb.c . Trivial error in
solution of quadratic equation. None of the current test cases are
influenced by this bug since the value of C (actually N) determines
only the condition of applicability of "continued fraction+recursion"
algorithm.
