It appears that decimal floating-point (DFP) constants and the operators "+"
and "-" are done to type (as if DEC_EVAL_METHOD were 0), but that the operators
"*" and "/" are done as if _Decimal128 (as if DEC_EVAL_METHOD were 2) -- this
is in gcc 4.4.0.  In gcc 4.3.2, everything was done as if to type
(DEC_EVAL_METHOD were 0).  This in on Intel Pentium 4 with Fedora Core Linux
11.
