Floating point comparisons are typically only useful when you account
for some amount of error - i.e. check if the numbers are within +-
some_small_number. Singles have long been neglected in RB however, so
there might be some things RS can do to minimize these sorts of
problems. The ability to define 4-byte floating point constants and
some smarter compiling to eliminate conversions to/from doubles would
be a nice start, but I doubt there's a sane "fix" for this. Compiler
warnings are a reasonable approach, but RS hasn't been too keen on
those in the past.
