9177,Improved serialization of floating point values,John Maddock,Robert Ramey,"Currently there are several weaknesses with floating point serialization:

1) There's no handling of {{{long double}}} or user-defined floating point types that have been declared primitives.
2) The current code for float and double may fail to print sufficient digits to round trip the value, when the value is less than 1, but not so small as to trigger an automatic switch to scientific format (which from memory occurs around 10^-5).

The attached patch addresses both of these issues, and coincidentally simplifies the code as well.",Bugs,reopened,To Be Determined,serialization,Boost Development Trunk,Problem,,,
