	// These are exactly representable in 64-bit floating point:
	//	1e23-8388608
	//	1e23+8388608
	// The former has an even mantissa, so "1e23" rounds to 1e23-8388608.
	// If "1e23+8388608" is implemented as "1e23" + "8388608",
	// that ends up computing 1e23-8388608 + 8388608 = 1e23,
	// which rounds back to 1e23-8388608.
	// The correct answer, of course, would be "1e23+8388608" = 1e23+8388608.
	// This is not going to be correct until 6g has multiprecision floating point.
	// A simpler case is "1e23+1", which should also round to 1e23+8388608.
