the PROTECT contents should probably match the function
you're using.

this will fix the problem, sure. I still think it would be cleaner
to reuse the float() semantics, since marshal.dumps uses repr().
to do that, you should use the code in floatobject.c (it wraps
strtod in additional logic designed to take care of various plat-
form quirks).
but nevermind, you have a patch and I don't. if nobody objects,
go ahead and check it in.
