See https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8052 for a description of the problem - in essence, 256 bytes is not wide enough to store the maximum value that can be stored in a double precision variable.

Sorry, this is my first time contributing a patch to a project on github - I mistakenly thought I'd be able to attach a patch to this issue after opening it, but I've now created a pull request that captures this info, so I'm closing this issue out.
