The problem is most likely because of something in DJGPP's floating
point emulation.  Nobody else has reported this sort of thing though, so
we'd appreciate it if you could post details on your computer's hardware
(manufacturer, cpu, ram, hd, etc.)  Please also include what version of
DJGPP you are running (v1.12, v2.00, v2.01), and the output of the
'go32-v2' command when run from a DOS prompt.
