[issue3462] test_builtin fails after test_decimal

[Amaury Forgeot d'Arc]

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amauryfa at gmail.com> added the comment:

Bingo! doctest sets the __builtins__._ variable,
and the last doctest in decimal.py (in lexicographic order) is
Decimal.__round__, which ends with
        >>> round(Decimal('sNaN123'), 0)
        Decimal('NaN123')
This is the value you see in Benjamin's output.

Here is a trivial patch:
