Bad sprintf code in Double.c / Float.c ?

[John Leuner]

Looking at the Float.c and Double.c I couldn't help but wonder at these lines:

  char buf[1024];
  jstring retval;

  sprintf((char*)&buf, "%G", d);


Why is there a cast to char*, surely buf is a char* itself (not needing the & 
operator)?


What needs to be done to get this output conformant with what SUN's JVM prints 
out?
