tags 348792 + patch
thanks

It looks like this is PR classpath/23863, and can be worked around
(rather inefficiently, but that's life) by increasing MAX_BIGNUM_WDS
to 128 when Pack_32 isn't defined, per

http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/classpath/classpath/native/fdlibm/mprec.h?tr1=1.4&tr2=1.5&r1=text&r2=text&diff_format=u

Could you please apply that patch?

Thanks!
