And, yes, at least one extra bit in emin is needed for that sticky 
rounding code to work (because the user's source code may have a decimal 
constant that is slightly over half the least subnormal, and mpfr_strtofr 
needs to return a nonzero value for that code to work, meaning a value 
whose exponent is one smaller than the smallest exponent of any subnormal 
value that is actually representable in the floating-point format).
