             Bug #: 15426
           Summary: Wrong sign of infinity from tgamma overflow
           Product: glibc
           Version: 2.17
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: math
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: jsm28@gcc.gnu.org
    Classification: Unclassified


When tgamma of a negative argument very close to 0 overflows (the result is
essentially 1/x), it should produce negative infinity but wrongly produces
positive infinity.  Example on x86_64: tgamma (-0x1p-1074).

(Discovered while working on a fix for the various known bugs about large ulps
from tgamma.)
