LB5 reals are floats (single precision), not doubles

LB4 had doubles.


x=1
for i = 1 to 40
x=x*10+0.1
print i, x
next

overflows as Single, not as Double

Error text after 1e38 is

Product could not be expressed as a Float

---

EDIT
Weirder still. "1.1" is float, "1e-1" is double
x=1
for i = 1 to 400
x=x*10+1e-1
print i, x
next

runs till e308, errors with

Product could not be expressed as a Double

Thanks. I don't think this will be hard to fix.
