* tests/tests.c: under Linux/x86, the FPU precision can be set before
doing the tests (see MPFR_FPU_PREC), so that MPFR can be tested under various FP environments (2 tests currently fail with _FPU_SINGLE). * README.dev: updated "To make a release" section. * BUGS: mentioned the above bug. git-svn-id: svn://scm.gforge.inria.fr/svn/mpfr/trunk@4325 280ebfd0-de03-0410-8827-d642c229c3f4
