Here's a potential fix using <ddout> from JVN's package as an example.
It's a patch on top of the peelDigit patch. Short of a peelDigit that
works and knows when to stop, I'm afraid it's patches...
CREATE dig$ 32 ALLOT
\ N.B. for separate stack only; 0.0E handled externally by DDFS.
: <ddout> ( f: |x+xx| -- |x+xx'|) ( sgn power -- )
2>R
32 0 DO peelDigit shiftBy10 LOOP
\ create digit string correcting for peelDigit
32 0 DO
DUP 0< IF 10 + SWAP 1- SWAP THEN
[CHAR] 0 + dig$ 32 I - 1- + C!
LOOP
\ test and correct any underflow (first digit '0')
dig$ 32 OVER C@ [CHAR] 0 = IF R> 1- >R 1 /STRING THEN
( a u)
R> ( p) S>D SWAP OVER DABS \ convert exponent
<# #S 2DROP SIGN \ append digits of exponent

[char] d HOLD
