Original ticket http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/ticket/1783 Reported 2011-03-25 by atmention:mwiebe, assigned to unknown.

For #1675, support was added for the format() function to numpy scalars. This support downcasts long doubles to doubles, so cannot print long doubles at their full precision. This should be fixed with custom formatting code in that case.
