I cannot reproduce this:

st> (99-110.0)/56053.86243369161
-0.0001962398222426215
st> FloatD fromBytes: #[191 41 184 184 122 240 221 224]
-0.0001962399669268441
st> 2 raisedToInteger: (-0.00019623982224262149)  exponent - 
(-0.00019623982224262149) class precision + 1
1/36893488147419103232

(It's -65 not -67 by the way).
