Side-effect or not, it looks like the change was pretty major and some documentation should be added. There, really, are two questions: 1. What is the new behavior? 2. Is the new behavior correct? It looks like, from the bug report, two separate issues are being reported. The first involves large integers, which I can't reproduce on w32 builds for 5.2.2 and 5.2.5, and should have anything to do with string-to-double. The second involves floats to strings. I'd argue that the first case shouldn't be happening, and I don't see it, but nate's report appears to be consistent with this sort of thing. The float complaints, however, is almost certainly all bogus, and needs better documentation. -- Edward Z.
