Actually if that's correct then things are a lot better than I feared: the 
text implies that the type behaves as a real type with 106-bit's in the 
significand.  It also implies that numeric_limits<>::epsilon must be buggy 
for that platform.  So I'm more confused than ever :-(

Thanks for the reference though, that's useful.
