Hi all,

could you please have a look at 
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37326

It looks not severe, but you get the error likely, if you use LINEST to 
get the coefficients of an interpolation polynomial. In those cases 
users have often x=0 among the known points. If would be nice to get the 
bug fixed in the new LINEST implementation before it it delivered. I 
think, that the patch has nothing dangerous.

Kind regards
Regina
