-# A test for SF bug 422177:  manifest float constants varied way too much in
-# precision depending on whether Python was loading a module for the first
-# time, or reloading it from a precompiled .pyc.  The "expected" failure
-# mode is that when test_import imports this after all .pyc files have been
-# erased, it passes, but when test_import imports this from
-# double_const.pyc, it fails.  This indicates a woeful loss of precision in
-# the marshal format for doubles.  It's also possible that repr() doesn't
-# produce enough digits to get reasonable precision for this box.
