   Newer compilers should provide
 std::numeric_limits'''FPT>'''::max_digits10 for this purpose

 Part in bold is suspicious.

 Immediately following that, there's a Note callout box with the more
 likely variable name:

   int max_digits10 = 2 + std::numeric_limits'''<FPT>'''::digits10 *
 3010/10000;
