I'd say it is a little on the low side, but the error is less than 5%,
so there is a good chance that it is OK.

The target value is pretty much the end stop value when all components 
are at the centre of their tolerance bands, so around half of the K2s 
shipped are likely to be unable to reach the full 3.8 volts.

In the case of the other reply, their 8 volt regulator was actually out 
of its 5% tolerance band.
