     any practical difference.  Here is a sample input file which

     [email protected] points out we should testing against
     TeX's largest or smallest integer (32 bits), not the machine's.  So
     we might as well use a floating-point constant, and avoid potential
     compiler bugs (also noted by djb, on BSDI).  */
