in thread Determining the minimum representable increment/decrement possible?

I hadn't thought of building perl without USE_PERLIO

BTW, in a recent email I suggested to Jarkko Hietaniemi that building without USE_PERLIO might be helpful re perl's problems with text-to-float.

He said "I don't think the float conversions have anything to do with perlio as such. Look at numeric.c."

Cheers,
Rob
