Yes, and why doesn't this generate an error:

test=> insert into example values(0.12345);
INSERT 19488 1
test=> insert into example values(0.1234567);
INSERT 19489 1
test=> select * from example;
other
------
0.1235
0.1235
(2 rows)

Jan, can you comment on this. I found the code in numeric.c, but can't
figure out what the proper test should be.
