Header <decimal> didn't go with the standard headers because it's not part of
the standard.  My first couple of patches put it in <tr24733/decimal> on the
recommendation of Benjamin Kosnik.  Ed Smith-Rowland in
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/libstdc++/2009-10/msg00012.html> suggested putting it in
<decimal/decimal> instead, where it would be just as hidden from standard files
but more recognizable.  Benjamin agreed and made that change.

I don't care where it goes, just wanted to clarify why it is where it is now.
