Version info: Getopt::Long 2.45, perl 5.22.0
The "f" type specifier does not seem to accept floating point values beginning
with a leading decimal point. For example
--foo=.123
is rejected, but
--foo=0.123
is accepted.
Minimal example:
----------------------------------------------
use warnings;
use strict;
use Getopt::Long;
my $opt_foo;
my $stat = GetOptions ("foo=f" => \$opt_foo);
----------------------------------------------
