Not so certainly at all--l00k and show us where?!
There seem to be no specific Float_IO tests that use large numerals
--they're not really so keen on that aspect of conformity, rather
simply checking that things are in place (so, small, easy model
numbers get used--occasionally non-model #s, too, which show up
on disputes! :-).
The only case of longggg numerals that I have found is in tests
that check for exact representations of 'Large/'Small (though one
might expect the bogus argument about too many numerals to be
offered there as well :-).
