Hello!

Tests CastableAs019, CastableAs017, CastableAs099, and CastableAs101 try the
following expressions:

“xs:untypedAtomic("-0.0E0") castable as xs:decimal”
“xs:untypedAtomic("1e-5") castable as xs:decimal”
“xs:string("-0.0E0") castable as xs:decimal”
“xs:string("1e-5") castable as xs:decimal”

and expect the result to be “false”. I've read the cited specs several
times tonight and I can't think of any reason why the result wouldn't be
“true” (with the resulting decimals being 0.0E0 and 1.0E-5).

Am I missing something, or are these bugs?
