Hi Phillipe,

software changes and (new) bugs can appear - thats life 
and happens independent from Pharo or other technology. 

There is a simple rule: "If it is broken we should fix it"
and I would add "and make sure it wont bug us anymore again".
At least we should in minimum find such bugs before a release. 

Therefore attached is a simple test case that is green on my VM and
should be red on your VM. 

Let's integrate it into Pharo, you already know the usual procedure
to open an issue and I'm sure the Pharo team and VM maintainers will 
take care.

Simple as that ...

Side note about recommending technologies and bug fixing:

 I once found a bug in Swing, others already reported it and 
 it is still after years(!) not fixed:
 http://astares.blogspot.com/2007/01/disappointing-swing.html
 So I have to wait and wait since I cant fix Swing myself...   

 If this error would be in Smalltalk I would easily be able to change 
 it until it is officially fixed. So in Smalltalk I can easily move on
 and it gives me the good feeling of beeing in control. 

 Still Java is more recomended than Smalltalk. Why? Because
 in the hopefully rare case a project really fails or is late 
 it could not have been the problem of choosing an exotic technology
 since others use and recommend Java too (sometimes known as
 the herd instinct) ;)

Bye
T.
