As written in the commit description:
"Referring BZ #13988 as a class bug rather than the specific issue."
and then quoting BZ #13988:
"Given the input "+.e", scanf (using %f) will correctly reject it as
non-matching, but will leave the file position at an incorrect offset of 3
rather than 2."
this is the same kind of bug. If you think this is not sufficient to
justify a reference, then I can drop it. Or please advise if you have
anything else in mind. Thank you for your input.
