 FloatingPointFormatter.cs has some code like this:
 [MonoTODO]
 private string FormatReversible (Format formatData, double value,

+I don't think it's the problem you're talking about.
+I just ran my testcase again and got:

+[mono@fw.home.lan ~]$ mono bug.exe

+Unhandled Exception: System.OverflowException: Number overflow.

+I must have missed the fist line in the original bug report.
