This sounds a lot like a problem people were having with Java long
values (64 bit ints). You might want to take a look at the class
src/tcljava/tcl/lang/JavaInvoke.java around line 819. The code
that converts Java values to Tcl values in located there. As far
as I know, Jacl and Tcl Blend should handle 64 bit double values
correctly, but there could be a bug in there. I have seen strange
return values like "1.#NAN" from the JVM before. I would be willing
to bet this is a JVM bug.
I hope that helps
