Mark Dickinson <dicki...@gmail.com> added the comment: The '1.06...e-314' number in the gdb output is interesting: it indicates a byte-ordering issue, though maybe that issue is only pertinent to gdb itself.
On a little-endian machine: >>> struct.pack('<d', 1.0604798301039825e-314) '\x00\x00\xf0\x7f\x00\x00\x00\x00' >>> struct.pack('<d', float('inf')) '\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\xf0\x7f' Same bytes, different order. This may indicate some kind of float / double mismatch somewhere, or a byte-ordering issue. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12589> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
