BTW, congratulations Felix on such a high quality numbers egg. There
is a new super-stress-test available for Scheme implementations in the
form of the latest SRFI-56 reference implementation + test suite.
http://sythcode.com/scheme/srfi-56.tar.bz2
Only two implementations pass all tests - MzS
FWIW, this is what I get:
#> (expt 10 100)
1e+100
This is with the latest darcs build and with gcc 4.0.2 prerelease.

Works for me. In fact (expt 100 1) gives the wrong magnitude,
about 10^305, without the patch. Interestingly it is even faster than
"calc", the "C-style arbitrary precision calculator (version
2.11.10.1)":
time csi -batch -eval '(use numbers) (display (expt 100 1))
(newline)' > /dev/null
Hello,
thank you for the patch. I don't even think it is too slow, as it is
still comparable in speed with dc, which is really fast.
With this problem removed, the numbers egg is really cool!

Hello,
I fixed two type conversion problems in the sqlite3 egg. The new version
is available at the same place as the old one.

The egg is available at http://www.chust.org/projects/sqlite3.egg, the
documentation, which is also included in the egg,
