Comment:

 Since the C++ IO Library Standard is somewhat permissive in output, and
 the support for signed zero is platform dependent, it is not believed
 possible to provide a solution which is exactly portable (producing
 idential output) over all platforms.
 It is probably wise to avoid using the signed_zero flag.
