+       tests: avoid spurious assertion failure in test-float.c on ppc64
+       * tests/test-float.c (test_long_double): Comment out an assertion,
+       LDBL_MIN_EXP <= DBL_MIN_EXP, that is failing at least on PowerPC-64
+       with gcc-4.4.4.

        I need to get in the habit of running gnulib's "make check".
        Both of these would have been caught.
