Dump-parsed-ast fails for very large Fractional number constants
The existing test file T15271.hs has
main = do
print 1e646457008
print 1e646457009 -- T15271: This incorrectly printed 0.0
print 1e1555550000 -- This is still infinity
print 1e1000000000 -- T15271: This incorrectly printed 0.0
Trying to run ghc --dump-parsed-ast T15271.hs` fails, using up all available memory.
When dumping the file in ghc-exacptrint, the start looks like this
({ tests/examples/ghc88-copied/T15271.hs:2:9-19 }

I am not sure if this is an actual problem, but it is worth noting.
