Which OS and compiler were in use? A possible cause is that the
platform didn't supply #defines for SIZEOF_DOUBLE and/or SIZEOF_FLOAT
when Python was compiled. This was, e.g., true on Windows before rev
46065.
On an Intel box, you should see this:
>>> float.__getformat__('double')
'IEEE, little-endian'
If you get 'unknown' instead, see above.
