Comment(by zimmerma):

 Jean-Pierre,

 the test of {{{real_mpfr}}} failed with a Segmentation fault on cicero.
 However I get
 the following with the "gross hack" on cicero (32-bit Pentium 4):
 {{{

 }}}
 and without the "gross hack":
 {{{

 }}}
 You should be able to reproduce the later on a 64-bit machine.
