[ID 20000721.002] bleedperl sfio fails op/sprintf.t

This is a bug report for perl from nick@talking.bollo.cx,
generated with the help of perlbug 1.29 running under perl v5.6.0.


-----------------------------------------------------------------
[Please enter your report here]

I've build bleedperl (.patch says 6417) with sfio (sfio as supplied by
debian, appears to be sfio 1999, newer than sfio98 which was the most
recent I was aware of)

comp/require.t test 23 fails (Out of memory) on stdio and sfio.
However, sfio also causes op/sprintf.t to fail tests 129 and 130:

not ok 129 >%.0f< >0.6< >1< >0<
not ok 130 >%.0f< >-0.6< >-1< >-0<

I'm not sure whether this is a bug in sfio or the perl test assuming too
much.

All other tests passed.
