I will try to figure out how to cross-compile gsl in 32bit mode on my machine, it might take a few days for me to resolve this. In the mean-time, I don't think there is any problem in using GSL in 32 bit, just that the test tolerances are too tight for 32 bit to pass the tests.

Subject: [Bug-gsl] gsl 2.1 test failures

Looking at updating the Fedora gsl package to 2.1, but we're seeing test failures on 32-bit builds:

[snip]

Just to muddy the waters a bit more, on Windows I'm getting the same failures with gsl-2.0 and gsl-2.1, but only with 32-bit gcc-4.8.2. With 64-bit gcc-4.8.2, 32-bit gcc-4.9.2 and 64-bit gcc-4.9.2 there's no such issue.

This suggests to me that there might be a gcc bug at play here.

(Sorry Patrick - I don't usually use gcc-4.8.2 and didn't discover this problem until a few hours ago.)

Cheers,
Rob
