Looks like it's down to ExplainPropertyFloat() having
machine-dependent behaviour.
On the machine that I was working with when testing this the following
code outputs "1"
#include <stdio.h>
double nfiltered = 1.0;
double nloops = 2.0;
int main(void)
{
printf("%.*f", 0, nfiltered / nloops);
return 0;
}
but on your machine it must be outputting "0"?
I'm not sure if I should just try to have even row numbers in the
tests, or if we should be fixing EXPLAIN so it is consistent.
