As I indicated earlier, I believe that expecting Intervals to work
for floats is misguided, so I agree with the philosophy of making a
separate subclass for floats.
However, I would like to point out that the code that I originally
submitted, as fixed by Dave Smith and others, does work just fine for
fractions, where rounding errors and approximations are not a
problem. So the class comment described above is rather more
restrictive than necessary.
