Follow-up Comment #12, bug #48418 (project octave):
It appears to be the case that 32-bit Windows processes set the FPU control
word to use double precision instead of extended precision. This differs from
the default behavior on GNU/Linux, and thus the test result differences by a
few eps.
We could easily add a call to octave_set_default_fpucw() when Octave first
starts up. This would probably fix this bug, as well as bug #48364 and bug
#48365.
