Having thought a bit more on this, I think we probably need a
DEC_DIGITS sensitive definition of NUMERIC_WEIGHT_MAX,
since per spec the max range for numeric is 0x20000 (131072)
decimal digits.
Therefore, I think perhaps what we want is:
+#define NUMERIC_DSCALE_MIN 0
+#define NUMERIC_WEIGHT_MAX ((0x20000/DEC_DIGITS)-1)
+#define NUMERIC_WEIGHT_MIN (-(NUMERIC_DSCALE_MAX+1)/DEC_DIGITS)
Maybe also 0x20000 (131072) should be a defined constant.
