Re: Portability problem

Thanks for doing that patch, Bruno. I also replied at in the perhaps vain hope that we needn't worry about using Solaris 10 /bin/sh to run 'configure' or Makefile snippets.

Portability problem

Gnulib generates non-portable shell constructs, which interferes with configuring Emacs on Solaris 10 using /bin/sh. See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2023-04/msg01590.html Would this be a sufficient solution? I've not had a chance to test it yet. 2023-04-26 Po Lu

YAPPP: yet another *printf portability problem

The test cases for large precisions, meant to uncover out-of-memory handling problems, also uncovered another problem: - On mingw, precisions larger than 512 are capped, i.e. treated like if they were 512. So, you ask for 2000 digits, you get 512 digits. - On BeOS, precisions larger than 10
