There are two published results for this test: 

1.26743233E15
1267.43233E12

The second one should not be allowed. (Functions and operators, 17.1.2, "there
must be exactly one digit before the decimal point, which must be non-zero")

However, the first result is not the only possible result. Saxon produces 

1.2674324E15

which is a different lexical representation of the same float as the published
value, and is therefore a correct answer.
