Summary: test_fpformat fails on IRIX

Initial Comment:
Given it involves "-0" this failure is beyond my
floating point ken.  I also note the comment:

# Test the old and obsolescent fpformat module

so I'll put no more effort into understanding.  :)

This is on an old IRIX machine running 6.4,
which means it's at least 2 years out of date.
