You can reproduce this exception in at least some non-Unicode locales, although I'm not entirely sure why ubiquity would have been in such a locale or why it would have been attempting to render such a large value; this may not have been the original case, but it'll do for a reproducer. The et_EE locale must be generated before running this.
