Description

fn main() {
    let a = 0.;
}

This causes the following error on an aarch64 build:

test.rs:2:13: error: invalid suffix ‘0.’ for number literal
    2 |     let a = 0.;
      |             ^~

but not on x86-64:

test.rs:6:9: warning: unused name ‘a’ [-Wunused-variable]
    6 |     let a = 0.;
      |         ^
