This is a bug in 8A428. I discovered this before the release (but apparently not soon enough). It's an obvious bug in the implementation of modf, which is one of the things that I would expect to be fixed in Mac OS X 10.4.1 (you might want to check for seeds if you have a key). I publicly documented this a couple weeks ago: http://bob.pythonmac.org/archives/2005/05/01/python-on-mac-os-x-104- tiger/ -bob _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
