Summary: test_fpformat fails on SGI

Initial Comment:
With the current version of Python on IRIX 6.5.13,
compiled without -O, test_fpformat fails.
It boils down to this: fpformat.fix(-0.003, 0) results
in the string "-0" whereas "%.*f" % (0, float(-0.003))
results in "0".

The output of the test is
+ ./python ../Lib/test/regrtest.py test_fpformat.py
test_fpformat
test test_fpformat failed -- Traceback (most recent
call last):
  File "../Lib/test/test_fpformat.py", line 51, in
