What should marshal / unmarshal do with floating point NaNs (the case we
are worrying about is Infinity) ? The current behavior is not perfect.
Michael Spencer chased down a supposed "Idle" problem to (on Win2k):
marshal.dumps(1e10000) == 'f\x061.#INF'
marshal.loads('f\x061.#INF') == 1.0
Should loads raise an exception?
Somehow, I thing 1.0 is not the best possible representation for +Inf.
