Tim Peters <t...@python.org> added the comment: Best I can tell, the fdlibm 5.3 on netlib was released in 2002, and essentially stopped existing as a maintained project then. Everyone else copied the source code, and made their own changes independently ever since :-( At least the folks behind the Julia language have made some effort to resurrect it as its own project:
http://openlibm.org/ Mark noted that GCC does use a different math library for tan() calls it can evaluate at compile-time. That appears to have started in gcc 4.3: https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.3/changes.html#mpfropts In any case ... are there are any test failures here on a _current_ OS/platform? If it's only on out-of-date platforms, I'd be content to just suppress the failures on those. Unless the number of affected systems is so large that their identifiers won't fit in a file ;-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31630> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
