This patch forces postgres95 to assume any floating-point value is a float8. It removes the requirement that you cast all floating-point constants to float8. We can remove alot of casts in the regression test after we are sure this works. If I have missed anything, would someone let me know. I have tested inserts of floating-point values into float8 fields, and it worked well. Casting the number to float4 showed the same precision loss as previous uncast values showed.
