Hi there,
Just playing around: Pike v7.5 release 3 running Hilfe v3.5 (Incremental Pike Frontend)
(float)"0.1e99";
Segmentation fault
Same for 7.4 (CVS versions two days old). And another one: Pike v7.5 release 3 running Hilfe v3.5 (Incremental Pike Frontend)
float x; x = 1e99;
Segmentation fault
Seems that the problem is related to Hilfe - from file it prints value as expected, no segfaults.
Regards, /Al
