I guess that changing x by accessing word0 or word1 is a violation
of the aliasing rules. The deinitions might work:

union doubleasulongs {
        double x;
        ULong w[2];
};

#define word0(x) (((union doubleasulongs *)&x)->w)[1]
#define word1(x) (((union doubleasulongs *)&x)->w)[0]

Could you test them and see?

	David.
