    Fix *two* bugs in formatRealFloat:
    
    The first one is in the Haskell 98 errata, namely that negative
    exponents cause an infinite loop in the FFFixed case when no precision
    is specified.  eg. `Numeric.showFFloat Nothing 0.02 ""'  I've modified
    the code in the errata to properly handle the e == 0 case and to be
    slightly more efficient when e > 0.
    
    The second bug is this:
    
       Prelude> Numeric.showFFloat (Just 0) 0.02 ""
       "0."
