Speed up RATIO->FLONUM and INT:->INEXACT by using (INTEGER->FLONUM N
#b11) when N is small enough that it has an `exact' flonum
representation. A prior log message comments on this, but the code
does not seem to take advantage.
DISCUSSION:
Question: why is (INT:->INEXACT N) not simply (INTEGER->FLONUM N #b10) ?
(EXACT->INEXACT (expt 2 3000)) used to fail in INTEGER->FLONUM,
but now it returns MAXDOUBLE (due to ldexp), but an Infinity or an error
would seem better.
R4RS says: If an exact argument has no reasonably close inexact
equivalent, the a violation of an implementation restriction may be
reported.
I would read this as NOT returning MAXDOUBLE as, say, 2^3000 is not
`reasonably close' to any FP number.
A previous log entry says INTEGER->FLONUM does not round reliably.
This is because bignum_to_double in "bignum.c" accumulates, which may
cause error due to intermediate rounding.
Perhaps bignum_to_double should be changed to extract the top 53 bits
and explicitly calculate the exponent; another test would be required
in place of bignum_fits_in_word_p, which does not (and should not)
understand rounding carry. Currently, calling bignum_to_double on
(- (expt 2 1024) 1)
signals a floating point overflow or returns an infinity depending on
which FPU exceptions are enabled.
If bignum_to_double was fixed it could be a lot faster than all the
current bignum arithmetic.

Fix bug: microcode was forgetting about file being opened when it ran
out of channel-table entries. This left the file locked until Scheme
was exited.
Additionally, the size of the channel table has been increased, and
the number of allowable handles set to its maximum value.

When trying to get information about a file, if we get permission
denied, try again using the directory reader. Some files, e.g.
"\pagefile.sys", cannot be interrogated in the normal fashion, but are
given in a directory listing. (More quality software design.)
In SET-FILE-TIMES!, temporarily disable the read-only bit if it is
enabled, as this prevents the primitive from completing successfully.

Now that MAKE-METHOD calls INITIALIZE-INSTANCE, it is necessary to
provide a default EMP for INITIALIZE-INSTANCE until the default method
is installed. This is done by means of the runtime system's default
EMP kludge.
