--- Comment #1 from Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org>  2012-12-21 16:58:31 ---

The man page already explains this quite clearly though:

       The a modifier is not available if the program is compiled with
       gcc -std=c99 or gcc  -D_ISOC99_SOURCE  (unless  _GNU_SOURCE  is
       also specified), in which case the a is interpreted as a speci‐
       fier for floating-point numbers (see above).

So, closing this bug.

Thanks,

Michael
