MinGW - Minimalist GNU for Windows

Hi,

I'm using gcc version 3.4.5 (mingw special) with version 3.15.1 of the
mingw runtime package - on Windows XP and Windows Vista.

The following is as I expect:

######################
C:\_32\c>type bug.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
double a = 0x123.1P-02;
printf("%f\n", a);
return 0;
}

C:\_32\c>gcc -o bug.exe bug.c

C:\_32\c>bug
72.765625

C:\_32\c>
######################

But if I try to compile the same source using the -ansi switch, the program
fails to build:

######################
C:\_32\c>gcc -ansi -o bug.exe bug.c
bug.c:5:16: exponent has no digits

C:\_32\c>
######################

I'm not exactly sure how MinGW is supposed to react to doubles being
assigned a hex value, but the differing behaviour looks buggy to me.
(Apologies if I'm wrong about that.)

Cheers,
Rob
