> I'm writing some code who's output includes fractional measurements meant for
> human consumption. I need a constructor for Fraction which allows you to
> restrict the denominators to a finite set. This is necessary due to the fact
> that real-world tools are only available with certain fractions. For example,
> it's next to impossible to find a ruler with 1/7 inch marked :).
> I'm attaching a patch which implements the functionality. I've attempted to
> mimic the style of the existing code as much as possible. One caveat: I don't
> speak French so the french error message is a computer-generated translation
> and probably very poor.
