     76  * routines produce a C double from such a string.  The suffix (4 or 8)
     77  * specifies the number of bytes in the string.
     78  *
     79  * On platforms that appear to use (see _PyFloat_Init()) IEEE-754 formats
     80  * these functions work by copying bits.  On other platforms, the formats the
     81  * 4- byte format is identical to the IEEE-754 single precision format, and
     82  * the 8-byte format to the IEEE-754 double precision format, although the
     83  * packing of INFs and NaNs (if such things exist on the platform) isn't
     84  * handled correctly, and attempting to unpack a string containing an IEEE
     85  * INF or NaN will raise an exception.
     86  *
     87  * On non-IEEE platforms with more precision, or larger dynamic range, than
     88  * 754 supports, not all values can be packed; on non-IEEE platforms with less
     89  * precision, or smaller dynamic range, not all values can be unpacked.  What
     90  * happens in such cases is partly accidental (alas).
