Subject: trouble using scanf on double arguments under Windows2000

scanf() does not always work the way I think it should.

Sample program:

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
  double dstat, ddyn;
  dstat=2.;
  scanf("%lf", &ddyn);
  printf("%lf %lf\n", dstat, ddyn);
  return 0;
}

usage:
hugo <hugo.in >hugo.out

Sample input file hugo.in:
20.1

Output file hugo.out:
2.000000 201.000000

compilation:
make hugo

gcc -v yields:
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-4/specs
gcc version 2.95.3-4 (cygwin special)
