Hi Anthony,
Thanks for the comments. 'at' should indeed be 'as', and the line with
four floating point numbers should have four spaces at the beginning.
For some reason the spaces disappeared when I copied the program's
output from a shell into the spec file.
The JSR 337 Maintenance Review finished on February 9 and the
Maintenance Release material has been sent for hosting, so these changes
will probably not appear until the Java SE 9 Edition. (There will be
other errata, no doubt - please see section 1.5 for the feedback alias.)
