+	 * keeps R small (though not as small as a true `lo' term would be),
+	 * so that extra precision is not needed for terms involving R.
+	 *
+	 * Compiler bugs involving extra precision used to break Dekker's
+	 * theorem for spitting f-hfsq as hi+lo, unless double_t was used
+	 * or the multi-precision calculations were avoided when double_t
+	 * has extra precision.  These problems are now automatically
+	 * avoided as a side effect of the optimization of combining the
+	 * Dekker splitting step with the clear-low-bits step.
+	 *
+	 * y must (for args near sqrt(2) and 1/sqrt(2)) be added in extra
+	 * precision to avoid a very large cancellation when x is very near
+	 * these values.  Unlike the above cancellations, this problem is
+	 * specific to base 2.  It is strange that adding +-1 is so much
+	 * harder than adding +-ln2 or +-log10_2.
+	 *
+	 * This uses Dekker's theorem to normalize y+val_hi, so the
+	 * compiler bugs are back in some configurations, sigh.  And I
+	 * don't want to used double_t to avoid them, since that gives a
+	 * pessimization and the support for avoiding the pessimization
+	 * is not yet available.
