This ticket is being opened to transfer '''one''' of the issues discussed in [http://rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Display.html?id=52198 RT #52198] to Trac.
In ''t/pmc/complex.t'', two tests are failing on Win32 and are TODO-ed out. As best as I can determine, they are generated by line 1052 inside `sinh_of_complex_numbers`.
```
.sub sinh_of_complex_numbers
.local pmc config_hash, interp
.local string has_negative_zero
interp = getinterp
config_hash = interp[.IGLOBALS_CONFIG_HASH]
has_negative_zero = config_hash["has_negative_zero"]

.complex_op_is("-2+0i", "-3.626860+0.000000i", 'sinh' )
[snip]
.complex_op_is("-2-3i", "3.590565-0.530921i", 'sinh' ) # line 1052
```
Note: Since I don't have access to Win32, I have to rely on Smolder reports. At the current time, we are receiving steady Smolder reports on Win32 from only one reporter. We would benefit from additional smoke testers on Win32.

Thank you very much.[[BR]]
