50 Overflow occurred if they differ by more than a small slop.
51 Thanks to Clive D.W. Feather for detailed technical advice about
52 hosts with padding bits.

54 In the following code the "h" prefix means half. By range
55 analysis, we have:
56
57 -0.5 <= ht1 - 0.5*time1 <= 0.5
58 -0.5 <= ht0 - 0.5*time0 <= 0.5
59 -1.0 <= dht - 0.5*(time1 - time0) <= 1.0
60
61 If overflow has not occurred, we also have:
62
63 -0.5 <= hdt - 0.5*(time1 - time0) <= 0
64 -1.0 <= dht - hdt <= 1.5
65
66 and since dht - hdt is an integer, we also have:
67
68 -1 <= dht - hdt <= 1
69
70 or equivalently:
71
72 0 <= dht - hdt + 1 <= 2
73
74 In the above analysis, all the operators have their exact
75 mathematical semantics, not C semantics. However, dht - hdt +
76 1 is unsigned in C, so it need not be compared to zero. */
