`integer-gmp2` uses the new 64bit-based IEEE deconstructing primop introduced in b62bd5ec. However, the returned values differ for exceptional IEEE values: Previous (expected) semantics: > decodeFloat (-1/0) (-4503599627370496,972) > decodeFloat (1/0) (4503599627370496,972) > decodeFloat (0/0) (-6755399441055744,972) Currently (broken) semantics: > decodeFloat (-1/0 :: Double) (-9223372036854775808,-53) > decodeFloat (1/0 :: Double) (-9223372036854775808,-53) > decodeFloat (0/0 :: Double) (-9223372036854775808,-53) This patch reverts to the old expected semantics. I plan to revisit the implementation during GHC 7.11 development. This should address #9810 Reviewed By: austin, ekmett, luite Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D486
