Personally I think that a literal that can't be represented should be an error. Silently replacing it with a different literal is a very dubious feature.

I think it should do clamping. I think the failing tests should be designated bignum-only-tests and not called when bignums are not available.
pcharp_to_svalue_inumber is a re-implementation of the strtod function, which also does clamping.
