I've tried d = 1234500000000000000000000. and d1 =
1234500000000000000000000./1 so far, even str(d), they all seem to show
correctly in the Variables windows of both 4.0.2 and 4.5.
I'm sure it doesn't matter, since it's fixed, but I'm curious as to what was
changed as a result of the item in the RB4.5 Release Notes on disk, page 6,
fourth item from the top.
