------- Comment #1 from frans.englich@telia.com  2007-01-16 12:10 -------
I don't see what makes General Decimal Arithmetic Specification a valid
reference in this context. Feel free to explain that for me.

I base the test on XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Functions and Operators, 6.2
Operators on Numeric Values, which says: "For xs:decimal operations, overflow
behavior ·must· raise an error [err:FOAR0002]. On underflow, 0.0 must be
returned."

Your comment on how a "negative" decimal is parsed sounds sensible; it makes me
conclude that underflow can never happen with numeric literals, and that
therefore the the valid baselines should be 1) the same as the input; and 2)
FOAR0002.
