[comp.sys.sgi] bug in ldexp

gwyn@BRL.MIL (Doug Gwyn, VLD/VMB) (01/05/90)

SGI 4D IRIX 3.2 C library function ldexp() returns a small positive
number for arguments (0.0,0) instead of exactly zero.  This is supposed
to be fixed in a future release, but if it matters to you you might
consider coding a temporary work-around for this particular case.
