Such coincidence :)

I'm not sure if it's glibc that's doing the swapping... see below.

I just tried this:

<source>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

static void dumpdouble(volatile double *x)
{
        printf("%.8x %.8x %lf\n", ((unsigned int *)x)[0], ((unsigned int *)x)[1], *x);
}

int main()
{
        volatile double x, y, z;

        x = 1.0;   dumpdouble(&x);
        y = 1.0;   dumpdouble(&y);
        z = 2.0;   dumpdouble(&z);
        z = x + y; dumpdouble(&z);

        return 0;
}
</source>

And it gives me this:

<output>
3ff00000 00000000 1.000000
3ff00000 00000000 1.000000

</output>
