Bruce Evans fd2891004d Oops, on amd64 (and probably on all non-i386 systems), the previous
commit broke the 2**24 cases where |x| > DBL_MAX/2.  There are exponent
range problems not just for denormals (underflow) but for large values
(overflow).  Doubles have more than enough exponent range to avoid the
problems, but I forgot to convert enough terms to double, so there was
an x+x term which was sometimes evaluated in float precision.

Unfortunately, this is a pessimization with some combinations of systems
and compilers (it makes no difference on Athlon XP's, but on Athlon64's
it gives a 5% pessimization with gcc-3.4 but not with gcc-3.3).

Exlain the problem better in comments.
