I _am_ supposed to know what you're talking about, right? [1]
[1] For those who have a problem with subtlety, I have no idea what
the "Microsoft %e issue" is.
Microsoft's printf() always uses a three-digit exponent for %e
conversions; other implementations typically only use three digits if
the exponent exceeds 99, and two digits otherwise (this behaviour is
explicitly specified by C9X).
See the thread entitled:
[Success/exposed test failures] XEmacs 21.4.14 "Reasonable Discussion"
i586-pc-win32
from around Sep 13 for more discussion.
