Follow-up Comment #6, bug #59890 (project octave):

I explain you how I met this case: briefly, I noticed that


octave:1> exp(-realmax+1i*realmax)
ans = -0


and then tried


octave:1> exp(-inf+1i*inf)
ans =  NaN + NaNi


Matlab gives 0 in this second case and also this simple fortran77 program


      program tstexp
      double precision d
      complex* 16 a
      d = 0.0d0
      a = cmplx(-1.0/d,1.0d0/d)
      write(6,*) a,exp(a)
      stop
      end
