  This is just a case where it's usually very unclear whether there really
is a genuine bug in the code or if it's just a question of floating point
(in)accuracy. If it's the latter, then there's little that can be done.

  Investigating whether it's a bug or just a limitation of fp numbers
can be quite laborious and it's understandable that people might not
always be eager to start investigating.
