BUG:	When doing a binary operation with a constant second operand and
	'onedspec' output format the constant used is incorrect due
	to a bug in which the number is used as a real number but is
	actually a double precision number.  The incorrect value can
	be seen in the verbose output.  For example:

	    cl> sarith specin - 48.5 specout format=onedspec verbose+
	    specin[1]  -  3.128906  -->  specout.0001

	The workaround is to use multispec output format for the operation.
	A later SCOPY can then be used to convert formats if desired.

STATUS:	Fixed in V2.11.
