Sigh. I made the niederreiter-2.c usage a macro.
I left multifit/demo.c for Brian.

The scoop on this, for those interested:

 const int N = 5;
 double x[N];

 o this is correct C++
 o this is correct C90 (therefore ok by gcc), provided 'x' is not of
global scope
 o this is correct C9x
 o not allowed in "old" ANSI C

I relaxed the tolerances one notch in most of those places,
which should make the errors disappear. There should be only
one remaining,

FAIL:   gsl_sf_synchrotron_2_impl(0.01, &r)
  test_sf.c 1083

  value/expected not consistent within reported error

I will take a look at this. In any case, it is just
a minor annoyance. Nothing to worry about.


Thanks for the report.
