+# FP_FIXD -- The following procedure is equivalent to "int(x)", except that
+# it preserves the most significant digits of x, when x is greater than the
+# largest integer.  For example, if an integer is 32 bits and X has a 58 bit
+# mantissa, "int(x)" would cause nearly half the precision to be lost.
+# 
+# Algorithm (x is assumed nonnegative):
+#    (1) find high, low x such that  x = highx + lowx
+#	and highx contains the extra digits of precision.
+#    (2) subtract highx from x, and truncate the residual by assignment
+#	into a long integer.
+#    (3) add truncated lowx and highx to get high precision truncated
+#	double result.
