Synopsis: math programs reporting incorrect values

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: das
State-Changed-When: Wed Jan 3 22:41:49 UTC 2007
State-Changed-Why: 
I don't see a bug here.  The PR text suggests some sort of
misunderstanding of how base 2 floating-point works, and the submitter
hasn't followed up with additional details in the past year.
