Description Michel Lind 2016-02-21 15:38:13 UTC
Created attachment 1129048 [details]
Scratch build log

Description of problem:
Failing test case on armv7hl:

    "unit-tests/03-number/number2string.scm"@16.1: FAILED (check-equal? (number->string .0009765625) "9.765625e-4") GOT ".0009765625"
    FAILED 1 UNIT TESTS OUT OF 61 (1.6%)

Note: the test case source file actually specifies 9.765625e-4 but the output is misleading because, in this case, number->string itself returns the wrong result.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.8.4

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Build on armv7hl (disable the ExcludeArch)

Actual results:
As attached

Expected results:
No test should fail
