Re: matrix decompositions fails on Max os X 10.2

I have recompiled with less optimization, and with -O0 the matrix decompositions work. This, however, allowed me to find another mistake. Compiling the tests with no optimization, they stop further down, in the specfunc directory. Only this failure is reported:

FAIL: gsl_sf_conicalP_0_e(0.0, 100.0, &r)
expected: 0.3009174858819926

value not within tolerance of expected value
0.30091748588199202 7.02719928226592486e-16

This is the only reported failure when the full make check is compiled with no optimization. And it is awfully close to machine epsilon.

I must retract a statement I made in an earlier posting about the beneficial effect of Apple's upgrade of gcc. It seems I must inadvertently have compiled the checks with less than -O2 when the internal compiler error first disappeared. I am sorry for that.
