It appears that there's a problem with floating point in 1.8.0p1...
On a MOO running 1.8.0beta3 and on another running beta2:
;1.6
=> 1.6
On a MOO running 1.8.0p1 and on ANOTHER running p1:
;1.6
=> 1.6000000000000001

All 4 are running on different machines with completely different hardware/
software.
