N3096 5.2.4.2.2p29 is an example with FLT_TRUE_MIN and DBL_TRUE_MIN
definitions, in particular:

  FLT_TRUE_MIN  1.40129846E-45F // decimal constant
  DBL_TRUE_MIN  4.9406564584124654E-324 // decimal constant

But since these are the minimum positive subnormals, one could use
only one decimal digit.
