Ahhh now I remember what the problem was... there is no 80-bit integer
type, so using union painting is the only way to work with reals in
CTFE.
Of course, this *could* be construed to be a nail in the real coffin,
seeing that real is purportedly slower on modern hardware due to x87
being gradually phased out...
