[Bug other/23572] No warning for assigning a value to a 'float' variable that overflows with option -Wextra

I think there are some real interesting issues here.
First with -pedantic we get a warning for line 9 but nothing more.  If we add f to the end of the 
constant on line 5, we then get a warning.  

And yes your example was useful. 

The interesting thing is that we don't get a warning for the following code:
  double d1 = 1.9E+308 + 1.;
which should warn.
