Subject: * stdio.texi (Integer Conversions): Corrections to sample printf
X-Git-Tag: upstream/2.30~22403

* stdio.texi (Integer Conversions): Corrections to sample printf

output, clarify `#' behaviour on 0.
(Floating-Point Conversions): Clarify that %g only uses %e when
the exponent would be greater than 1.
