Summary: fix test_long failure on OSF/1

Initial Comment:
When using cc on OSF/1 V5.1, test_long fails because
PyFloat_FromString() returns a ValueError instead of an
OverflowError when the string is too long.  The library
appears to work a bit different.  This patch fixes the
problem.

test test_long crashed -- exceptions.ValueError:
invalid literal for float():
12345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345123451234512345
