In http://bugs.python.org/issue24507
there was an apprehension about changing the decimal test versions.

Poking around I find that the versions in headers of files in
Lib/test/decimaltestdata refer to version 2.59 and the IBM link
http://www2.hursley.ibm.com/decimal which is dead

Whereas help(decimal) points to
http://speleotrove.com/decimal/decarith.html -- version 1.70 

http://speleotrove.com/decimal/ contains dectest.zip which is
at version 2.62
