The argument against supporting this, I suppose, is that we never generate a
"Q|q" exponent on output. 

As a result, the example in c.l.f doesn't try to parse something that was
previously written by formatting a floating point number, but rather a
hand-crafted string. IOW, it seems rather artificial.

That being said, it seems ifort supports it, so maybe we need to as well..
*sigh*.
