The problem was that creating a DECIMAL column from a decimal value could lead to a failed assertion as decimal values can have a higher precision than those attached to a table. The assert could be triggered by creating a table from a decimal with a large (> 30) scale. Also, there was a problem in calculating the number of digits in the integral and fractional parts if both exceeded the maximum number of digits permitted by the new decimal type. The solution is to ensure that truncation procedure is executed when deducing a DECIMAL column from a decimal value of higher precision. If the integer part is equal to or bigger than the maximum precision for the DECIMAL type (65), the integer part is truncated to fit and the fractional becomes zero. Otherwise, the fractional part is truncated to fit into the space left after the integer part is copied. This patch borrows code and ideas from Martin Hansson's patch.
