Re: human friendly hexrep???

[Morten Welinder <mortenw gnome org>]

The formats "%A" and "%LA" have some degree of freedom.  Specifically,
while the standard specifies one digit before the ".", it does not
constrain the digit other than being non-zero for normal numbers.  The
exponent is in bits, so that leaves four possible renderings of each
value.

For example, if your value is 2, you can end up with 0x8p-2, 0x4p-1,
0x2p+0, or 0x1p+1.

hexrep is a debugging tool so the exact form of the output isn't
terribly important.
