Eek!  Whilst you have certainly found a bug, it has to be said that
pattern-matching against literal floats is a _really_ bad idea in
general anyway.  I'm hoping that Float patterns will be kicked out of
Haskell-prime, so that programmers are forced to think a bit harder
about what they really want.
