I am just repeating what I wrote in the above-mentioned mail from 3 Sep 
2013:

--- snip ---
"DECIMAL_PRECISION"  actually became a misnomer now and should perhaps 
be called "SIGNIFICANT_DIGITS" -- or the format should be changed back 
to "%<precision>f". Maybe some of the GDAL devs has an opinion about the 
issue.
