Maybe "bug" is not the right word. I'd call it a deviation from the
specification then. Do you happen to know what the intention was?
If from_tuple(..., 'F') accepts coefficients, logically Decimal("Infinity0"),
Decimal("Infinity123") etc. should be accepted as well. But they're not part
of the grammar and decimal.py rejects them.
