Re: Test release for GSL 2.8

Christian, thanks.  I did not get that "make check" error on Mac OS 12.7.4,
64-bit Intel mac, with Apple clang 14.0.0.

>From your Mac log file, this looks like simple roundoff error at relative
difference of about 2.57e-13.  At first glance, this seems reasonable for a
matrix calculation in double precision, from different processors.  I leave
it up to Patrick and others, to judge whether this is acceptable error in
context of the QR decomposition tests.
