Re: [PATCH] libgfortran: Correct FP feature macro checks

[Thomas Koenig via Gcc-patches]

Hi Maciej,

  Infinity is the least of a problem, because as it turns out we have
numerous FP library functions in libgfortran that require explicit porting
to each FP format supported, like these settings:

              xbig = 26.543, xhuge = 6.71e+7, xmax = 2.53e+307;

The Fortran intrinsis like HUGE, EPSILON, SELECTED_REAL_KIND etc
would have to be handled correctly, both for simplification in
the front end and in the library.

Does the program

  print *,HUGE(1.0)
  print *,EPSILON(1.0)
end

print correct values?

Regards

        Thomas
