Hello,
thank you for your attention.
I'm sorry, but I couldn't understand what types of numerics you was
talking about. Large numerics are just transformed into "inf" (or
"Inf") and the patch contains such test. But there were no tests with
numerics close to "inf" but not "inf" yet. So, I've added such test.
Also I've fixed the thing Thomas Munro was talking about.
