Hi,

It seems that something is wrong with sscanf(3) in -current - in
some cases it may cause SIGBUS. I failed to reproduce the
problem on 4-STABLE, so it is a -current specific bug. Attached
please find small showcase that exposes the bug in question
and a backtrace after SIGBUS.

Please fix.

#include <stdio.h>
int
main()
{
        float sub;
        sscanf("59e", "%f", &sub);
        exit(0);
}

(gdb) r
