OTOH, Python 2.4 works just fine...: Python 2.4.3 (#1, Apr 7 2006, 10:54:33) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5250)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> 0.0,-0.0 (0.0, -0.0) >>> -0.0,0.0 (-0.0, 0.0) so it seems to be very specifically a 2.5 problem.
