The current code is sort-of broken, and in a future rewrite (not for 6.8.2) it
would be nice to get rid of the float code altogether.  If you want to look into
that, that would be cool, but for 6.8.2 I think a smaller, less intrusive patch
is better.  Since the polynomial acceleration code already use floats and has
the remainder fields in the struct, I think that's the way to go for the stable
release.

I didn't mean to obsolete your integer patch as a long term solution, I was just
evaluating it in the context of 6.8.2.
