Who should I conspire with to get this done? I've already tracked
down one of the bugs: convert_to_double in floatobject.c prefers
PyInt_AS_LONG, assuming it can't fail, which is no longer true.
>>> 5.0 * 9999999999999
-5.0
>>> 1.0 + 999999999999
0.0
What is the policy on working on the p3yk branch? I thought I read
that we should skip bug reports, but I've been unable to find the
email saying so.
