I don't know templates work in theory, but g++ in practice will in
fact put a floating point value into an object of a particular type,
and it will emit that type in the mangled name before the value of
that type. The grammar for a floating point literal in a mangled name
is
L <type> <(value) float> E
where <type> is a mangled string representing a type, and <float> is
the literal string which we are discussing.

g++ will pull the `-' off, and represent this as something like
ngLfXXXXXXXXE
Here `ng' is the negation operator, `L' is the start of the literal,
`f' is the type of the literal (in this example, float), `XXXXXXXX' is
the mangled floating point literal string, and `E' marks the end of
the literal string.
