yajl rounds floats to 6 digits #21

In [12]: yajl.dumps([1.0/3])
Out[12]: '[0.333333]'

In [13]: json.dumps([1.0/3])
Out[13]: '[0.33333333333333331]'

I didn't notice anything in the JSON rfc that set the precision.

This is obviously coming from yajl's yajl_gen_double() function where it's doing an sprintf("%g"), which sets it to 6 digits by default. Is there a way around it?
