  r65258 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-27 08:15:29 +0100 (Sun, 27 Jul 2008) | 4 lines

  Remove math.sum tests related to overflow, special values, and behaviour
  near the extremes of the floating-point range.  (The behaviour of math.sum
  should be regarded as undefined in these cases.)
........
  r65292 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-29 19:45:38 +0100 (Tue, 29 Jul 2008) | 4 lines

  More modifications to tests for math.sum:  replace the Python
  version of msum by a version using a different algorithm, and
  use the new float.fromhex method to specify test results exactly.
........
  r65299 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-30 13:01:41 +0100 (Wed, 30 Jul 2008) | 5 lines

  Fix special-value handling for math.sum.
  Also minor cleanups to the code: fix tabbing, remove
  trailing whitespace, and reformat to fit into 80
  columns.

  r65308 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-30 17:20:10 +0100 (Wed, 30 Jul 2008) | 2 lines

  Rename math.sum to math.fsum
........
  r65309 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-30 17:25:16 +0100 (Wed, 30 Jul 2008) | 3 lines

  Replace math.sum with math.fsum in a couple of comments
  that were missed by r65308
........
  r65315 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-30 21:23:15 +0100 (Wed, 30 Jul 2008) | 2 lines

  Add note about problems with math.fsum on x86 hardware.
........
  r65326 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-31 15:48:32 +0100 (Thu, 31 Jul 2008) | 2 lines

  Rename testSum to testFsum and move it to proper place in test_math.py
