Are there any MPFR bugs fixed in 2.4.0 that can be exposed through the
limited way GCC uses MPFR?
The announce was incorrect. It should have said:
"Changes from versions 2.3.* to version 2.4.0:"
like in the NEWS file. AFAIK, I backported all the bug fixes to the
2.3 branch for the 2.3.2 version. I still need to publish a patch
on the web page for
https://gforge.inria.fr/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=6604&group_id=136&atid=619
(corresponding to r5664), but I don't know if GCC is affected by this
bug.
GCC does not currenlty use mpfr_strtofr, which is mentioned in the above
bug. So I'll assume upgrading from 2.3.2 to 2.4.0 fixes no GCC-relevant
MPFR bugs, and therefore no upgrade to the GCC docs for which minimum MPFR
version to use is necessary.
