The Guidelines for Running the XML Query Test Suite do address this issue,
saying:

"Many tests involve operations on floats/doubles and converting those results
to strings. Even as one explicit value is given, the task force realizes that
other values may also be acceptable. In such cases submitters are encouraged to
submit values that may differ. The task force will eventually determine if such
values are within the acceptable range."

It didn't occur to us to reference this comment in the relevant test cases.
