Comment (by dlwalker):

 In C++11, there are two additions to the `std::numeric_limits` class
 template.  One of them, `max_digits10`, seems to exist to solve this
 problem.  In fact, Boost.Test uses that datum when compiled in C++11 mode.
 (Which caused a problem in Boost.Rational because it wasn't updated for
 many years.)
