vax-netbsd: do not tempt fp overflow, which will SIGFPE
The 3e100 seems to have no special meaning, except being in floating point.

bisect run success
That took 424 seconds.
Which modified the above test to change from a 3-digit exponent to a 2-digit exponent, and to significantly shorten it. I'd be happy to provide a patch to add an optional leading zero to the test, but I don't know how to handle the issue of Linux trying to print the value as a 37 digit integer. What's the correct behavior here?
