Jim, it would be useful to use the printf-posix module in coreutils: 1) The 'printf' program uses all floating-point directives, even with 'L'. 2) The 'seq' program started to print garbage on BeOS when it was changed to use 'long double' values, where it used 'double' values before. You can see from gnulib/doc/functions/printf.texi that this affects also other platforms than BeOS. Bruno
