Hardware: SPARCstation 1
Software: SunOS 4.1.1, gcc version 2.3.3

I've recently installed gcc version 2.3.3 (with fixincludes) & libg++-2.3
with what seems to be no problems, except that libg++-2.3 failed 
"make check" as follows:

cd test; make check ...
make[6]: Entering directory `/usr/gnu/src/libg++-2.3/libg++/iostream/test'
	<<<successful tests deleted>>>
gcc -O2 -nostdinc++ -I. -I../.. -I./.. -I./../stdio -I./../../g++-include \
	-c tformat.C
gcc -o tformat tformat.o ../libio.a ../../libg++.a
./tformat
Error in line 3490 using "%.5G".  Result is "5.3770E+14"; should be: \
	"5.377E+14".
Encountered 1 errors in 3988 tests.
make[6]: *** [check-tformat] Error 1
make[6]: Leaving directory `/usr/gnu/src/libg++-2.3/libg++/iostream/test'

I went ahead and installed libg++ anyway, and for the first time ever
was able to build and install groff with no problems.

Is the "make check" error above a real or pseudo error?  I don't recall
seeing this problem reported before.
