Re: [TCLCORE] Tcl/Tk 8.6.14 Release Candidates

[Paul O. <pa...@po...>]

Builds without warnings on Raspberry Pi OS and RiscV (VisionFive 2 Debian).

Tcl produces 1 failure on RiscV:
==== binary-40.3 ScanNumber: NaN FAILED
==== Contents of test case:

     unset -nocomplain arg1
     list [binary scan \xff\xff\xff\xff f1 arg1] $arg1

---- Result was:
1 NaN
---- Result should have been (glob matching):
1 -NaN*
==== binary-40.3 FAILED

Paul
