For bug #188449, since python floats have limited range, we multiply both floating point representations by a constant so that they are transformed into whole numbers. This allows the practically infinite range of a python int to be exploited. The multiplication is done by padding both literal strings with zeros as necessary to ensure equal length. (branches/2.1.2 r7607)
