I assume the problem is more that it would be a weirdo check that
becomes a maintenance burden ("what is this doing here? Do we still
need it? who knows?") than that it would be hard to do.

if not str(np.longdouble(2)**64 - 1).startswith("1844"):
warn("Printing of longdoubles is fubared! Beware! Beware!")
