#2995: default value output precision

 If I make an option like this:
 ("maxlength", po::value<double>(&MaxLength)->default_value(.1), "Maximum
 edge length to keep.")

 The help message looks like this:
 --maxlength arg (=0.10000000000000001) Maximum edge length to keep.

 It probably should default to fewer decimal points.
