     Type:  Bugs                    |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined        |  Component:  multiprecision
  Version:  Boost 1.60.0            |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                          |
------------------------------------+----------------------------
 Here's an example program:

 {{{
 #include <boost/multiprecision/float128.hpp>
 #include <boost/version.hpp>
 #include <iostream>
 #include <iomanip>

 template<typename Float>
 void test()
 {
     std::cout << std::hexfloat << Float(1.3516809557473623e+236Q) << "\n";
 }

 int main()
 {
     std::cout << "boost " BOOST_LIB_VERSION << "\n";
     test<double>();
     test<boost::multiprecision::float128>();
 }
 }}}

 Its output is
 {{{
 boost 1_60
 0x1.5417c8p+784
 1.351681e+236
 }}}
 while in both cases hexadecimal format was requested. Here second and
 third lines should be identical.
