       A few hours ago, the documentation of sqrt in numbers.texi was
       changed from saying that it returns a NaN to saying that it signals a

   I think that is a bug--why does it not signal an error?

As Eli pointed out, it is probably due to my glibc version.  So I will
definitely _not_ install the change to numbers.texi which I proposed.

Sincerely,
