Potential bugs: * Possible incorrect results due to internal underflow, which can lead to a huge loss of accuracy while the error analysis doesn't take that into account. If the underflow occurs at the last function call (just before the MPFR_CAN_ROUND), the result should be correct (or MPFR gets into an infinite loop). TODO: check the code and the error analysis. * Possible integer overflows on some machines. * Possible bugs with huge precisions (> 2^30). * Possible bugs if the chosen exponent range does not allow to represent the range [1/16, 16]. * Possible infinite loop in some functions for particular cases: when the exact result is an exactly representable number or the middle of consecutive two such numbers. However for non-algebraic functions, it is believed that no such case exists, except the well-known cases like cos(0)=1, exp(0)=1, and so on, and the x^y function when y is an integer or y=1/2^k. * The mpfr_set_ld function may be quite slow if the long double type has an exponent of more than 15 bits. * mpfr_set_d may give wrong results on some non-IEEE architectures. * Error analysis for some functions may be incorrect (out-of-date due to modifications in the code?). * Possible use of non-portable feature (pre-C99) of the integer division with negative result.
