My original report was with an x86 system. Now, I'm sitting in front of an x86_64 system running Python 2.4.4 (from Debian stable) and Python 2.5.2 (from Debian testing), both 64 bit userland. On these systems, the behavior I described does not exist: Assignment always appears to result in an IEEE754 double-precision float. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3360> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
