I am running windows nt 4.0 server, sp2.
I have a library regression test that I run on the compilers I use.
It showed a bug with the 'rint' function.
This function is supposed to convert a double to an integral double
value. It isn't working, as the enclosed test program shows.

Compile with no options, i.e.
gcc yy.c
yy

The output should be nothing, but it is:
47.4 47.125000
47.6 47.625000
-47.4 -47.125000
-47.6 -47.625000
