--- Comment #7 from Paolo Carlini <paolo.carlini at oracle dot com> 2011-05-19 08:42:45 UTC --- Glad that the issue is clear now. By the way, Cecilio, apparently in your Comment #4 you didn't get my point about the C++ library vs printf: the ISO C++ Standard specifies the behavior of setprecision, precision, and so on, **in terms of printf**, with no intermediate rounding, truncation, or whatelse: really everything must go "as-if" the number were feed directly to a printf like the one written down by myself and Jakub. Thus, really, if anything, this PR could be *only* a glibc issue. As a matter of fact, isn't an issue at all.
