Another example:

<?php
$dt1=new DateTime("2000-01-01 00:00:00");
$dt2=new DateTime("2006-01-02 03:04:05.000251");
$interval = $dt1->diff($dt2);
var_dump($interval->format("%R%Y-%M-%D %H:%I:%S.%F"));
/* Output: string(25) "+06-00-01 03:04:05.000250" */

Description:
------------
From PHP 7.1.0, DateInterval::format() supports "%F" parameter which shows fraction of
DateInterval. However, sometimes "%F" prints incorrect value because of floating point
inaccuracy.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$dt1=new DateTime("2000-01-01 00:00:00");
$dt2=new DateTime("2006-01-02 03:04:05.524287");
$interval = $dt1->diff($dt2);
var_dump($interval->format("%R%Y-%M-%D %H:%I:%S.%F"));


Expected result:
----------------
string(25) "+06-00-01 03:04:05.524287"

Actual result:
--------------
string(25) "+06-00-01 03:04:05.524286"
