Changes for version 4.22

  • Add overloading of '<<' and '>>'. (Left shifts and right shifts don't make a lot of sense in floating-point environments. These overloads simply call mul_2ui or mul_2si or (respectively) div_2ui or div_2si, thereby altering the value of the exponent, but having no effect on the mantissa.
  • Work around perl bug in https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/19550
