New submission from Eric Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
See http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-July/081242.html
for the discussion. Basically, 'F' did the same as 'f' because it was
assumed that neither would ever produce an exponent. But they do, for
numbers greater than about 1e50. Also, 'F' should produce 'NAN' for
cases where 'f' produces 'nan'.
