Arggg. I didn't update the regression test's stderr.
Actually, I didn't do "make install" before running "make check"
and the target directory had the libraries with my previous changeset.
The diff you quoted reflects the last change. Result of
    double d; /* contains NaN or +/- INF */
    printf("%lf", d);
is platform-dependent, the new string is
"fixed" across all platforms.

Here's the new patch with the updated regression test.
