TEST-FLOAT-IO-CONSISTENCY failure

[Jerry J. <log...@gm...>]

Greetings,

During the latest clisp build for Fedora Rawhide, a test failure was
encountered in number2 on an ARM platform, namely:

(TEST-FLOAT-IO-CONSISTENCY :FROM 1.0L-3000 :BY 1000 :TO 1.0L3000 :REPEAT 10)
ERROR!! ((-4.295097036180546188L-727 9621443592353920301 -2476 -1))
should be NIL !

If I'm reading the test correctly, that means

(read-from-string (prin1-to-string -4.295097036180546188L-727))

evaluated to something other than -4.295097036180546188L-727, right?
I will try to put together an ARM virtual machine next week and see if
I can gather more information, but I thought I would send a message
here in case there are any known reasons why this test might fail on
an ARM.

Regards,
