New submission from Stefan Krah <stefan-use...@bytereef.org>:
>>> from decimal import *
>>> c = getcontext()
>>> c.prec = 2
>>> c.logb(Decimal("1E123456"))
Decimal('123456')
>>>
This result agrees with the result of decNumber, but the spec says:
"All results are exact unless an integer result does not fit in the
available precision."
My interpretation is that the result should be 1.2E+5.
