That's what known as bug-which-is-masked-but-present-otherwhere. It is exposed in FreeBSD, due to our unusual handling of floating point errors. You can hide it by calling fpsetmask() with other flags; that will make the bug silently create wrong results, instead. You should report it to the samba team. Eivind.
