Okay, I've upgraded to 5.1.3 and now I get the expected results:  (/ 1.0 3.0)
produces different answers from (/ 1.0f0 3.0f0), and 1.0 is not eqv? to 1.0f0.

Bug report:  (/ 1.0f0 3.0f0) prints 0.3333333432674408f0, where the
low-order digits are obviously nonsense: only 8 digits make any sense
for single-floats, and that's all that should be printed.
