  Remove math.sum tests related to overflow, special values, and behaviour
  near the extremes of the floating-point range.  (The behaviour of math.sum
  should be regarded as undefined in these cases.)

  r65292 | mark.dickinson | 2008-07-29 19:45:38 +0100 (Tue, 29 Jul 2008) | 4 lines

  More modifications to tests for math.sum:  replace the Python
  version of msum by a version using a different algorithm, and
  use the new float.fromhex method to specify test results exactly.

  Fix special-value handling for math.sum.
  Also minor cleanups to the code: fix tabbing, remove
  trailing whitespace, and reformat to fit into 80
  columns.
