sourceforge kind of munged the diff I was trying to present to you, maybe this one will be easier to read:

 z = Double.valueOf(string.substring(s, end)).doubleValue();
-if (z == Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY || x == Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY) {
-    throw Py.ValueError("double() out of range:" + string);
+if (z == Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY || z == Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY) {
+    throw Py.ValueError("float() out of range: " + string);
 }
 
Also this patch contains a tab character. Could you please disable tabs in your editor for all future patches? The codebase prefers spaces, thanks!
