#3676: realToFrac doesn't sanely convert between floating types

Comment(by simonpj):
Yes, that's because the library `GHC.Float` contains the (clearly
incorrect) RULE
{{{
"realToFrac/Double->Double" realToFrac = id :: Double -> Double
}}}
This ticket really really needs someone who knows and cares about numbers
to figure out what the Right Thing is. It's a library issue involving
only Haskell source code. Would someone like to help?
Thanks
Simon
