Change History (most recent first):
<3> 2/5/91 Lai BM,#81596: Also for bug jfr101 on whiteboard. Move the
functionality of making a 'reco' in coercion to AECreateDesc and
just call AECreateDesc.
<2> 1/17/91 Lai In StdCoercion, check for overflow going from 'sing' to 'doub'
because source may be equal to 'INF'.
<1> 12/13/90 Lai first checked in after subdividing into smaller modules
To Do:
