It's not just me. Others have confirmed the same behaviour, but only 
on 32-bit Linux:

Looks like multiplication:

>>> x = 1.-2.**-53
>>> assert x.hex() == '0x1.fffffffffffffp-1'
>>> assert (2049.0).hex() == '0x1.0020000000000p+11'
>>> (x*2049.0).hex()  # Should be '0x1.001ffffffffffp+11'
'0x1.0020000000000p+11'

I'd like to see what result the OP gets if he runs this. Serge is using 
Linux, but if I'm reading it right, it looks like a 64-bit Linux.
