The accuracy of outputformat in r.out.arc is inconsistant with GRASS internal format.

GRASS uses internally an accuracy of 8 numbers. r.out.arc writes out only 6 numbers.

After export and reimport with r.in.arc into GRASS this is felt as an mismatch of several cells at the east boundary. This error possibly occurs just on huge grids with n x n >> 1000 x 1000.

Example :

Original North/West corner :
n =28.64083333
w =37.45333333
res=0.00083333

After export with r.out.arc :
n =28.640833
w =37.453333
res=0.000833

Increasing the accuracy for r.out.arc output should be no problem.
