I'm not seeing this on api06.dev, so I'm waggling the finger of blame towards cgimap. My reading of http://github.com/zerebubuth/openstreetmap-cgimap/blob/master/src/writer.cpp#L131 suggests* that double results are printed to (a maximum of) 9 significant figures, which is fine for latitude and fine if all your testing longitudes cover, say, UK and Germany.
