<pre>Thank you for your reply Mike, I appreciate your links.
For users, personally I don't feel infinite precision is not needed. Just
accurate decimal precision, up to 8 would be ideal for most accountants etc we
work with. If coded in a soft decimal lib, that's only 27 bits, but I
appreciate, you'd have to code this in software, as compilers just generate
code for double precision.
Could I ask, does your precision patch also resolve this test case? anyway,
good to have a second test case.
