When constructing a floating-point value, literals are apparently
sometimes interpreted as octal integral types, although they contain
exponent marker or/and decimal point. The presence of exponent marker
or/and decimal point should suffice to identify it as floating-point.

Example:
>>> x = 02120246124e0
>>> x = 02120246124.0
>>> x = 021202461241e0
ValueError: invalid literal for long() with base 8: '021202461241e0'
>>> x = 021202461241.0
ValueError: invalid literal for long() with base 8: '021202461241.0'

I am using Python 2.5.1 from openSuSE 10.3.
