New Comment:
Floating point values have a limited precision. Hence a value might
not have the same string representation after any processing. That also
includes writing a floating point value in your script and directly
printing it without any mathematical operations.
Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Description:
------------
This simple operation fails. We have tried it on PHP 4.3.4 standard
install on fedora Core 2, and PHP 5.0.1.
Instead of 0 we get 1-8.8817841970013E-16. If we change a bit the
number the code doesn't fails, very weird.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
die(9.95 + 4.97 - 9.95 - 4.97);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
0
Actual result:
--------------
1-8.8817841970013E-16
