Comment:
I think we should stick with the standard 2-digit exponent. It's almost
universal. If people agree, I'll fix this.
Right now the fix-up code is #ifdef'ed on WIN32. I'd be tempted to make it
unconditional and work for any number of exponent digits. I'd also add a
#define for the default number of digits,
`PARROT_SPRINTF_DEFAULT_EXP_DIGITS.
