The bullet item in question should read (and does in fact read, in
the current status-quo draft):

    All ˇminimally conformingˇ processors must support decimal 
    values whose absolute value can be expressed as i / 10k, 
    where i and k are nonnegative integers such that i < 10^16 
    and k &#8804; 16 (i.e., those expressible with sixteen total 
    digits).

The last-call draft SHOULD have had this text, but did not, owing to
a clerical error made by me in the runup to the publication of
the last-call draft.

In the confident expectation that this resolves the issue, I'm 
marking this issue as resolved.  If you agree, please so indicate by
changing the status of the issue to CLOSED; if you disagree,
please REOPEN the issue and indicate in the comment what is
wrong.  If we don't hear from you in the next two weeks, we'll
assume that you are content with the correction.
