# 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.
