MSWin32 t/bytes.t failure (3.27)

Hi Rob,

on MSWin32 / perl-5.22.1-RC2 / 32bit without 64bitint I have experienced t/bytes.t failure, the compiler is gcc-4.9.2 (same as in strawberry perl 5.22.0).

Interesting is that the same perl version but with 64bitint builds fine.

t/bessel.t ................ ok
t/buildopt.t .............. ok
Use of uninitialized value in numeric ne (!=) at t/bytes.t line 114.
Use of uninitialized value $dig in concatenation (.) or string at t/bytes.t line 116.

 != 113

$@: __float128 support not built into this Math::MPFR at t/bytes.t line 95.


Skipping tests 6-8
t/bytes.t .................
Failed 1/9 subtests
t/constants.t ............. ok

Thanks for the report. This is something that should also be tripping up cpan-testers. The attached patch to t/bytes.t should fix the issue. (It works for me on Strawberry ... pity I didn't think to trial it on Strawberry prior to uploading.) I'll upload a corrected Math-MPFR-3.28 distro later today. Cheers, Rob

Thanks for prompt reply. So, if I understand correctly, it is safe to ignore this test failure, right? -- kmx

Yes - it's just a poorly constructed test. Cheers, Rob

Should now be fixed in version 3.28 on cpan. Versions 3.26 and 3.27 have been scheduled for deletion to backpan.
