Re: [PATCH 2/2] Add a missing default case in lgamma

       Dear Andoni,

unless I did a mistake, I still get the same error (7.50e+06 ulps)
than before this patch (after applying the other one), when I do an
exhaustive search on all binary32 inputs:

Using RedHat newlib
MPFR library: 4.1.0       
MPFR header:  4.1.0 (based on 4.1.0)
Checking function mylgammaf with MPFR_RNDN
libm wrong by up to 7.50e+06 ulp(s) [7497618] for x=-0x1.3a7fcap+1
mylgamma      gives -0x1p-24
mpfr_mylgamma gives -0x1.e4cf24p-24
Total: errors=509423944 (11.91%) errors2=11684280 maxerr=7.50e+06 ulp(s)

What result do you get for x=-0x1.3a7fcap+1?

Best regards,
Paul
